Sony has confirmed that the PS4-exclusive RPG developed by From Software will unsheathe its scythe early next year in North America. Bloodborne will also have an impressive collector’s edition with a variety of bonuses for diehard fans this coming February 6th, 2015 and a day earlier in Japan, February 5th.
According to the PlayStation Blog, Sony says the $79.99 edition comes with a steel book case, an art book, and a digital soundtrack.
The publisher also revealed an in-game skin for your messenger that’s available exclusively to those who preorder the game.
Directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki (Dark Souls, Demons Souls), Bloodborne takes place in an ancient, abandoned city called Yharnam which was known for housing a medical remedy. Over the years, many travelers made pilgrimages to Yharnam seeking the remedy to cure their afflictions; the protagonist is one of these travelers. Upon arriving in Yharnam, however, it is discovered that it is overrun with a terrifying curse which has rendered most of the city’s population violently deranged. The player must navigate the streets of Yharnam and defeat its insane inhabitants and horrifying monsters in order to survive.
