Full Disclosure: I have financially backed Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night on Kickstarter.

505 Games and developer Inti Creates have announced a new demo for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night.

The game’s playable demo, shown off at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo, is now available to “select” Kickstarter backers who pledged $60 or more to the game.

Featured above, you can view a new trailer for the game. Here’s a rundown on the game:

Now available as a digital download on Steam for PC, players will be treated to refined content and features, while previewing new enemies and NPCs and taking a deeper look at game narrative and quests. First showcased at 2018 E3 earlier this month, the demo places players on a sailing ship upon stormy seas before progressing through a village and into a dark castle setting, introducing new characters, enemies and bosses along the way. For the first time, players will also be able to experience alchemy and crafting and visit shopkeeper/exorcist Dominique to stock up on various goods to aid them on their journey.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is on track for a release sometime in the first half of this year, across PC, Mac, Linux, PlayStation 4, PS Vita, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch.
