The visuals present in the earliest demos of Koji Igarashi’s Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night did not receive the kindest reaction from fans. Many leveled their criticism against the “bland” environments, but others targeted the game’s “poop” presentation. Since then, the famed developer took these criticisms to heart and continued to pour his soul (and millions of dollars worth of Kickstarter funds) into the game’s presentation in anticipation of a 2019 release.
Now, Igarashi is ready to showcase just how far Bloodstained has come in a brand new trailer, which has been embedded above.
Igavania is back! With the support of the Bloodstained community, 505 Games and ArtPlay have taken the extra time and care to ensure we’re doing things RIGHT. Check out some before and after comparisons in this new video to see all the hard work we’ve poured into Bloodstained over the last year.
Publisher 505 Games also used this opportunity to announce the Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night’s release date. It’ll be available for the PC (through Steam and GOG), PS4, and Xbox One on June 18th. A Switch launch will follow a week later on June 25.
