The Original Score of Bloodhunt - Entity - For this track, we wanted to create a feeling of a powerful force that is to be reckoned with. This was the last song that we can share at this point, but there is a lot more music to enjoy in Bloodhunt! Stay tuned. pic.twitter.com/J0LqkuMXsx

The players take the roles of vampires who are trying to survive the sect war, by battling both each other and other entity who tries to exterminate vampires.

The players can choose to fight on their own or in a team, and use ranged weapons, melee weapons, as well as vampiric powers to conceal their identities as vampires from humans, through a practice called the Masquerade.

Developed by Sharkmob, Bloodhunt has announced it will launch early access from September 7, 2021 on Windows PC through steam, and interested players can sign up from bloodhunt.com.

With its unique interpretation of a Battle Royale game, set in a well-established World of Darkness, Bloodhunt is certainly going to be a game to watch out for.
