Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon was created on the back of a stretch goal for the Kickstarted Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, but here it is now, rocking up on Xbox One as a ‘proper’ game!
Available to download right now, Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon promises to bring you swords, whips and plenty of retro action as you take on the role of demon slayer, Zangetsu. It will be up to you to embrace the retro visuals that are found within as you navigate your way through multiple lands in order to defeat an evil demon who is found lurking in a dark castle.
With a number of other playable characters to meet along the way, each of which come with their own unique abilities, replayability in Curse of the Moon promises to be high with every choice you make changing the difficulty of the game – as well as affecting the overall ending.
The £8.99 price tag that Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon is being offered at may well be low enough to tempt many in. If you are one of those, and fancy a bit of retro action, then get over to the Xbox Store and sort your download out pronto.
