Bloodborne expansion out tomorrow

Sony has confirmed that Bloodborne: The Old Hunters expansion will launch tomorrow for $19.99.

The Old Hunters introduces new horrific environments and enemies. Brador, seen donning the scalp and horns of a foul beast, is an ancient Hunter and assassin once employed by the Healing Church who sits in a dark cell, waiting for something with bell in hand. 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.

Two new weapons are available in The Old Hunters expansion. The first is the Bloodletter, a demented weapon wielded by Brador. This weapon assumes its true form after drawing upon the blood of its wielder. In other words, you must plunge it into your own chest in order to unleash its true power. You will also find 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. While it is great for rapid-fire attacks, it is also cumbersome and goes through Quicksilver Bullets very quickly.

Players will also discover a new rune called The Beast’s Embrace. Those brave enough to unleash the power of this rune take on a ghastly form and enjoy boosted transformation effects, especially when wielding a beast weapon.

Bloodborne was released early this year, exclusively on PlayStation 4.
