Bloodstained 8-Bit Spin-Off Curse Of The Moon Out This Month

Bloodstained curse of the moon

Koji Igarashi’s Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night still hasn’t seen the light of day yet, but now we are learning that it is getting a spin-off. The game is an 8-bit game called Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon, and is set to release for PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, 3DS, Switch and PC later this month.

This game is an obvious throwback to the early Castlevania games, and was actually developed thanks to a stretch goal from Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night’s Kickstarter campaign. Curse of the Moon stars Zangetsu, who is on a journey to take down a powerful demon contained within a dangerous castle.

While the game is retro in many ways, one way it will be adding its own twist to the formula is with the Ally system. Each time a player is able to defeat a boss, they will then meet another character that can be convinced to join Zangetsu on his journey. These include the likes of the whip-wielding Miriam and the alchemist Alfred.

Each ally comes with their own attack and health bars, meaning that players will have a better chance of survival with more allies on their team. There will also be ally-specific shortcuts and items that only certain characters will be able to get, so allies are pretty important to have.

To go along with all of this is the fact that the game actually has multiple endings. The ending of the game that players get is determined by players’ choices when recruiting allies, so the game will warrant multiple playthroughs to see them all. Veteran and Casual difficulties will also be included along with the standard difficulty. Veteran difficulty increases enemy damage and causes knock back with each enemy attack, whereas Casual doesn’t feature the knock back and gives players unlimited lives.

Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon will launch for PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, 3DS, Switch and PC on May 24th. You can check out the official trailer for the game below.

It appears that many

are eagerly anticipating the launch of the highly anticipated PS5 exclusive, Stellar Blade. Shift Up, the developer, has shared a lengthy video showcasing the “secrets” found in the physical box of the game for PS5. From what we can gather, these secrets include a reversible cover/dust jacket and a download code for cosmetic items.

We must clarify that while we do appreciate the variant cover, it may be more appealing than the game’s standard art. However, it is not something we would typically classify as a “secret.”. However, what’s interesting is that Shift Up has confirmed through the comments section that this will be the case in all regions. Additionally, the visually striking action RPG will remain uncensored worldwide.

It’s refreshing to witness a developer going the extra mile for physical collectors, and it’s evident that the developer is determined to leave a favorable mark in the console realm. Stellar Blade is set to make its highly anticipated debut this Friday, April 26th, exclusively on the PS5.

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has received an exciting update that introduces a new graphical mode, elevating the game’s visual experience. With a smooth frame rate of 40 frames per second and enhanced resolutions, players can now immerse themselves in even more stunning and detailed environments. Now downloadable on PS5 with the latest patch 3.2, this mode is compatible with 4K TVs that can handle up to 120 Hz. Before this update, Avatar PS5 only offered quality and performance modes. However, with this new option, players can now enjoy the benefits of both modes after downloading the 2.4GB update.

Throughout the PS5 era, 40fps modes have been a rarity, much to the disappointment of the hardcore community. Insomniac Games first introduced them in Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales and later added the feature to Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. They also included it in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2. Other PS5 titles, such as Hogwarts Legacy, Lies of P, and God of War Ragnarok, also offer 40fps modes.

In addition to that, Patch 3.2 for Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora brings along the following:

Worldwide:

  • Research Station Alpha now features a convenient Fast Travel option
  • The issue of controller re-mapping and resetting on game restart has been resolved
  • Addressed multiple instances of crashes
  • I corrected a few spelling errors
  • Addressed the issue of voice lines overlapping during dialogue

Primary Objectives & Optional Objectives:

  • [Main Quest: Shadows of the Past] This main quest is an intriguing journey into the depths of history. Addressed a bug that previously hindered quest progression in co-op mode

More bug fixes have been implemented.

  • [Available on all platforms] The rescued human characters no longer return to the Resistance HQ wearing masks
  • Available on all platforms. There is a noticeable improvement in the visibility of NPCs when they are at the edge of the Player’s vision
