Bloodborne 'The Old Hunters' has yet to be released next week, but producer Masaaki Yamagiwa has revealed updates about the expansion.
Yamagiwa shared that the game will bring its fans a whole new universe of dangers and horrors to be undertaken. There are also new weapons and armors to be acquired. In his Playstation blog post, he talked about the new enemies the gamers will encounter including an ancient hunter and a hulking foe. "Brador is an ancient Hunter and assassin once employed by the Healing Church who sits in a dark cell, waiting for something--or someone--with bell in hand," he writes. "And while exploring the new nightmare, beware of the Bell Holder. This massive enemy wields the Bell Axe and is one of the most formidable beasts you will face."
New weapons include the Bloodletter, which only reveals its true form and power after being drawn to the chest of its wielder, as well as the Gatling gun, a portable version of the stationary rapid-fire gun that Djura uses to rain down lead from the tower in Old Yharnam.
Another thing to watch out for in The Old Hunters' release is the rune referred to as 'The Beast's Embrace.' The producer explains, "Those brave, or foolish, enough to unleash the power of this rune take on a ghastly form and enjoy boosted transformation effects, especially when wielding a beast weapon."
Yamagiwa gave Bloodborne avid gamers a series of instructions in order to access the new content after they have bought and downloaded the expansion.
The Japanese video game maker 'From Software' created Bloodborne, a game that has reached more than one million copies in sales, and has earned a score of 9/10 in Gamespot's review. The Old Hunters narrates the story of the hunters of the past who are trapped forever in a nightmare world. It will be available for purchase on November 24.
