Why is there no Easy mode?

FromSoftware believes difficulty is part of the experience. But you can make it easier: Summoning players, using Arcane Builds, or recruiting NPCs for boss help.

What is the difference from Dark Souls?

Bloodborne is faster and more aggressive - no shields, Rally mechanic rewards attacking. Gothic-cosmic atmosphere instead of medieval fantasy.

Is there a PC version?

As of 2024, PC remaster rumors are strong. Currently available only on PlayStation 4/5 and PlayStation Now/Premium for streaming.

Bloodborne

In short: Bloodborne is an RPG game released in 2015 by FromSoftware, available on PlayStation and PC. Our score: 9.5/10 (highly recommended).

Dark and challenging action RPG from FromSoftware with Victorian horror atmosphere

Bloodborne is one of FromSoftwares greatest games and one of the generations finest. In the gothic city of Yharnam, you are a hunter facing terrifying cosmic creatures. Unlike Dark Souls, combat here is aggressive and fast - the Rally system rewards aggression by restoring health. The interconnected world is brilliantly designed with shortcuts, secret areas, and unforgettable bosses. Deep lore gradually reveals a story about science, religion, and cosmic madness. With The Old Hunters DLC, this is the genre peak.
