    So do any of the dev team know what its actually like to play a br on console because it appears not.
    Imagine thinking you can create a battle royale on console and not offer controller customization. No one wants to play a movement based ability shooter and be locked into an archaic control scheme using X to jump and O to crouch/slide instead of R3/L3. The game might actually be amazing    So do any of the dev team know what its actually like to play a br on console because it appears not.

The game might actually be amazing but this fundamental flaw just kills it. This could have been a breakout game in world of droll generic fps cash grabs instead its an unbalanced poorly optimized mess that leaves everyone shaking their heads in disappointment. A 7 would be worth your time.. this is a 7 for perhaps the first hour then your realize its 6 at most. Honestly I want to give it a 1 so bad bc its actual garbage but i don't do troll scores    … Expand

    This game is pretty crap on PS5, preformance is up and down, the controls feel clunky and stiff. The servers are typically bad for me. There's clear metas already, so balance is crap. It's gonna be another hyperspace.

    Concept is great, however completely unplayable on ps5, aim assist on controller is pathetic. Might as-well not be there, this game should have been only PC

    C'est du poopoo caca. Possiblement le Battle royale le plus basic que j'ai vu de ma vie. Les classes veulent rien dire et les skills sont vraiment de la bouette. Honnêtement je me prendrait un coup de pied dans les shnols avant de rejouer

I just can’t imagine people will play this at all after trying it out. They really just need to release them real game and stop trolling us with these “World of darkness” spin-offs no one wants or cares about. Oh and did I mention it wants your money for micro transactions!?! It seems as if that’s this whole games purpose for existing and I’m not down for that. Try it if you must, but it really is just a dud.… Expand

    In a nutshell : it's just another gun shooting battle royal with a vampire skin over it.

    For a vampire themed game,
    The vampire parts are not very significant.Most of the time, the classic take cover , shoot and run playstyle of any other battle royal dominates and you rarely have to do anything different here.
    Vampire powers are cool but not tide turning and don't do much against direct gun fire.
    The dash and clim mechanic can setup a good chase scenario in the game however this is more than often won by the one with the better or faster firing gun.
    It relies too heavily on guns. This builds up as you play and ends up drowning the whole vampire concept and just makes this game like any other shooter except in the dark.

    Additionally maybe the game would benefit from a team death match mode or a PVE all this with more Meele focus. Guns can be special timed use, or heavily ammo limited perhaps?
    Oh speaking of guns, they are not well balanced. ARs and snipers are always the better options.    … Expand

    This is an incredible experience!!.. I played and turned on Apple Music just to play an old Lost Boys movie soundtrack and sure enough the mood was set for several rounds of blood and carnage. The game is just pure fun and I was expecting as much going into this as it plays smooth and has excellent high fidelity resolutions for those who love graphics with great gameplay.

    by using the vampire concept but with battle royal mechanics making it more fun, especially being able to play in multiplayer mode will make the atmosphere more exciting

    I’ve never been a fan of the battle royale genre until now. The setting, the different clans and archetypes, exploring Elysium, THE CUSTOMIZATION!!! It is all amazing. Growing up I always wanted to play Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines but didn’t have a PC. Playing Bloodhunt on my PS5 has become my window into the world of Darkness and I’m so excited to see this game grow.

    Unbalanced garbage of a game that has a cool theme. Not worth giving it a shot at all. Quite horrible and devs that don't listen obviously.

    Unplayable garbage for console users. Aiming and weapon handeling is nearly impossible with a controller. Movement is also very restricted. Fun that you have so many abilities but it's useless when your in a fight and get attacked by other players. Very rewarding to sit back and wait for someone else to start a fight. World looks good weapons are ok not terrible could be better. I wouldUnplayable garbage for console users. Aiming and weapon handeling is nearly impossible with a controller.

    The aiming is all messed up. PlayStation users will lose 99% on 1 on 1s vs PC players. The game gets boring after a couple hours. Great concept poorly executed

    It’s pretty fun a lot of changes need to be made tho. Melee weapons are stronger than guns and I would love to see weapon skins and crossplay between ps5 and pc but overall the game is still fun and it’s worth playing.

    Bloodhunt: Not very different from other battle royales, last one standing wins and all that. The thing that separates them from others is the fact that you are a vampire, all the classes have unique abilities and that helps the character progress through the match, another cool feature is the fact that feeding on some citizens will give you boost.

I haven't encountered any bugs in this game and it a extremely fun play. Not in the BR mood, no problem they have a TDM mode where you can test out new characters before playing as them in the BR. Bloodhunt is another game that I've thoroughly enjoyed playing either alone or with friends. If you want to play Battle Royales but are tired of the same old thing, Bloodhunt is the game for you.

    Bloodhunt is a robust and remarkably well-crafted battle royale. It might not bring the genre back from the dead entirely, but it’s still a bloody good time. [Issue#15, p.96]

    Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodhunt turns us into vampires to show us the pros and cons. The formula of this Battle Royale offers a different proposal to what we know. The fights through the streets and rooftops of Prague will be part of the appeal of the game.

    Vampire The Masquerade Blood Hunt doesn't revolutionize the battle royal style, but brings some fresh new features thanks to a solid level design and nice gameplay options. A good BR game, a bit different from what we are now used to play.
