Bloodborne Is Now Available On PC Via PSX Demake Mod

After being in development for 13 months, the Bloodborne demake is out now and its launch trailer is hellishly wonderful!

Developed for the most part by Lilith Walther with the help of friends, this Bloodborne demake has been one of the most highly anticipated games of its kind. Well, it’s finally here and we can explore Yharnam in all of its nostalgic PS1-era glory.

The Bloodborne demake has 10 unique hunter weapons complete with a “Strategic Action Combat” system to slay the tormented residents of Yharnam. The demake is also complete with dodge and roll mechanics, as well as a parry system to down foes with the quicksilver firearm.

Sticking to the old-school PS1-era gameplay mechanics, the playable Hunter is controlled using the D-Pad with the camera being manoeuvred by the Left and Right triggers. Though it will be interesting to see if analogue controls are implemented at a later date.

The demake is a hellish joy to behold

Being a fan of PS1 games, I not only love the visuals and gameplay style of the demake but also how the visuals are blacked out as a result of the PS1s struggling draw distance. Additionally, I also love the fact that the aspect ratio has remained true at a 4:3 display.

From livestreams that I have watched, fans will recognise the various locations in the demake. Including the realm of the Hunters Dream. However, the Yharnam map as well as some enemies have been tinkered with. So, expect to be kept on your toes with a few surprises.

At this time, the demake also includes the boss battles with Cleric Beast and Father Gascoigne. Hopefully, we’ll see new boss battles added to the game at a later date.
