With just four days remaining before the new Bloodborne expansion is made available for PlayStation gamers to enjoy in the form of The Old Hunters, a new Bloodborne patch has been made ready.
Sony’s Bloodborne’s publishers have this week released a massive patch for the game ahead of the game’s new expansion launch next week, which is a colossal 9GB in size. This patch is not just a minor update; it brings significant changes and improvements to the game, ensuring that players have the best possible experience when diving into the new content.
Patch Details and Enhancements
The 9GB patch includes a variety of enhancements and fixes that address several issues reported by the community. These updates range from performance improvements to bug fixes and new features. One of the most notable additions is the introduction of a new covenant system, which adds a fresh layer of gameplay mechanics and strategies for players to explore. This system allows players to align themselves with different factions, each offering unique rewards and challenges.
Additionally, the patch includes several balance adjustments to weapons and enemies, ensuring a more fair and engaging experience. For example, certain weapons that were previously considered overpowered have been toned down, while others have received buffs to make them more viable in combat. These changes are aimed at creating a more balanced and enjoyable gameplay experience for all players.
The Old Hunters Expansion
The Old Hunters Expansion will be officially available to purchase for $19.99 / €14.99 / £11.99 and play from November 24th. This expansion tells the story of the “legendary hunters” that are referenced in the main game. The new Bloodborne PS4 expansion takes place in a new “nightmare world where hunters from the past are trapped forever.” This setting provides a rich and immersive backdrop for players to explore, filled with new enemies, bosses, and lore to uncover.
Players can expect to encounter a variety of new weapons and armor sets, each with its own unique abilities and aesthetics. These new items will allow players to further customize their characters and adapt their playstyles to the challenges presented in the expansion. Additionally, The Old Hunters introduces new areas to explore, each with its own distinct atmosphere and secrets to discover.
A new version of the game that includes the original game and the new The Old Hunters Expansion will be available as the Old Hunter Edition, which will be available to purchase from December 5th. This edition is perfect for newcomers to the series, as it provides a comprehensive package that includes all the content released to date.
