The game has everything Bloodborne had, a good setting, awesome visuals, and a combat system that is very similar to Bloodborne’s. The main character P can even parry incoming attacks using some kind of prosthetic on his right arm.

Then come the monsters and enemies; they are as creepy as the enemies of that other game. So what remains? What remains is the launch date of this game. The good news is that fans awaiting the launch of this game will not have to wait very long. This game would be launching on the 19 of September 2023. Fans can start ordering right now.
