BloodRayne: Betrayal cuts up PSN, XBLA in early August

by Alexander Sliwinski on Jun 8th 2011 10:30PM

BloodRayne: Betrayal will eviscerate PSN and XBLA during the first weeks of August, representatives for Majesco told us at E3. We had specific dates for both consoles, but neither fit the standard release day schedule for a digitally distributed title and reps changed the date to "early August." It will cost $15 (1200 MSP).

Developer WayForward has completely reinvented the concept of BloodRayne for the better, saying that Majesco pretty much gave them carte blanche to make the license their own. If you've never heard of BloodRayne, this is a great arcade slasher introduction. If you've heard of BloodRayne, forget what you know. If you enjoyed BloodRayne before, sorry.

Isn't 800 points ten bucks?

Bloodraynmania? Not sure if want...

Hey look, it's the Shank sequel nobody wanted.

@Ezio Auditore da Firenze
Actually, if there were a Shank sequel I WOULD want it... this... or anything Bloodreign related? DO NOT WANT.

@Ezio Auditore da Firenze yeah i was gonna say it looked like shank as well. only id like another game like that as i enjoyed the game and enjoyed couch co-op with my friend as well.

@Ezio Auditore da Firenze

I thoroughly enjoyed Shank on normal difficulty and playing co-op. I was more than willing to play through again on hard until I realized that any death results in restarting the level (including cheap "gotcha kills" when knocked off an edge).

I actively avoided the Bloodrayne games before, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this one.

@Ezio Auditore da Firenze I think you mean "The Castlevania HD that everyone wanted"

$15 ≠ 800 MSP

Is it $15/1200 points, or $10/800 points?

Confusion is at hand, Joystiq!!

WHY WONT THEY JUST LET THIS FRANCHISE DIE!!!!!???

@PN04

Because it deftly combines such poignant elements like Nazism, Vampirism and Feminism into a transcendental, revelatory experience that forces the player to re-evaluate their self-image, and the role they play in their own society.

Not to mention that the vampire bitch's titties are f*cking huuuuuuuge.

@PN04

Wayforward revived Contra, they shall do so for BloodRayne.

@PN04 Don't like a game? Then don't buy it.

@stafa
Oh don't worry I wont. Especially since I can't buy a physical copy just to burn in effigy.

"It will cost $15 (800 MSP)." --> $15 = 1200 MSP

Not sure if I'd go for this at $15. Especially with this releasing around the same time as titles like FROM DUST and INSANELY TWISTED SHADOW PLANET.

Will this be rated E?

@DeadInside E for Egads.

@DeadInside

E for Extra Gore

Or Extra Boobs.

Wait... that didn't sound right...

Hell, I'd still hit it.

So.....sick.....of "punny" post titles.

WayForward is the DS developer everyone likes, right? So this could be alright.

@radioactivez0r

Didn't they make the first (and only) RPG side-scrolling space shooter?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_Star_Saga

Yep, sure did...and one of my favorite GBA games :)

Buying this day one. Super excited for an HD Strider Castlevania: Vandal Hearts Blood Spurting XXX: The Movie: The Ride.

Note: I could care less that it's connected to Bloodrayne.

This really did give me the feeling of an HD Castlevania. It may not have the exploration but it does look fun. Between this and Dragon Crown I'm really happy.
