Bloodborne

The folks at Smosh Games have taken on Bloodborne in the newest Honest Games Trailer, and it’s bloody fantastic. Walking both uninitiated and seasoned players alike through the world of Dark Souls Bloodborne, this Honest Trailer cuts no corners in describing the gritty, gory nature of the game along and the many varied ways the game utilizes its preferred liquid, blood.

This tongue-in-cheek summary of Bloodborne describes the game’s underlying inspirations, from literary references and homages to other video games, all while ensuring the audience understands how truly gruesome the game’s monsters and battles are. Also included in the video is a not-so-subtle jab at the annoying loading screen and a comparison of Bloodborne’s protagonist to another very famous video game hero. Can you guess who?

Give yourself a well-deserved break and watch the Bloodborne trailer below. In the meantime, I’ll be out searching for some awesome top hats to add to my collection.

Is there anything the video might have missed? Let us know your thoughts while you wait on that loading screen.
