Senare i veckan släpps #Bloodborne, #Dark Souls-skaparnas Playstation 4-exklusiva spinoff i ett viktorianskt helvete. Serien har hyllats för sin extrema svårighetsgrad men belönande gameplay och det verkar som Bloodborne fått samma mottagande av spelpressen.
Embargot lyfte inatt men vi är ännu inte redo att sätta betyg, varför du kan läsa vår åsikt senare i veckan. Ett urval av de bästa recensionerna läser du dock nedan.
Destructiod - 9/10
Bloodborne is an interesting mix of everything From Software has learned throughout its storied developmental career. Not everything will gel with fans old and new, but for the most part, the shift towards a combat-oriented game is a net positive. From Software is still one of the only developers left that makes you work for your satisfaction, and Bloodborne is damn satisfying.
Gameinformer - 9,75/10
Bloodborne is a blood-drenched horror gem that has only the faintest of cracks in its façade. Bloodborne succeeds through sparse storytelling, lush atmospheres (conjuring up notions of the best of Lovecraft’s work), and tight combat that forces you to be aggressive. While this new IP doesn’t stray far from the established Souls franchise, it is a magical, wondrous work that admirably instills both terror and triumph in those brave enough to delve into it.
Escapist Magazine - 4,5/5
Bloodborne, like the rest of the Souls games, isn't going to be for everyone. But, if you're the patient sort and are willing to put in the time and effort to get good at Bloodborne's complex and punishing combat, you'll find Bloodborne nearly impossible to put down.
EGM - 9,5/10
Ultimately, though, the Chalice Dungeons are entirely optional. As much as I found them lacking, they can’t put much of a blemish on an otherwise stellar From Software offering. Bloodborne is probably Sony’s first truly great exclusive of the new generation, and it’s certainly the most enjoyment I’ve gotten to date out of my PlayStation 4. Whether you’re a Souls diehard, a fan of demanding gaming experiences, or just someone looking to add a superb title to their currently lacking PS4 library, you’ve got every reason to give Bloodborne a shot.
Vi kommer att streama spelet från 13:00 och framåt så vill du se två kompletta noobs bli slaktade käkar du lunch framför skärmen idag.
