Stylish action games always catch my attention. From Devil May Cry to Souls-adjacent things, whether I like them or not, there is always room for a good action game. With Bloodborne 2 (or a Bloodborne remaster) nowhere to be seen, it looks like games like BloodRush: Undying Wish will have to fill the gap.

Developed by Brazilian studio Lightmancer Studios, BloodRush: Undying Wish will be released into Early Access on July 1^st for PC. Versions for PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch systems will be coming at a later date. Here is what the press release says about BloodRush: Undying Wish:

“BloodRush: Undying Wish is a frenetic action game fully focused on stylish combat, improvisation, and creativity. Players have access to dozens of weapons, abilities, perks, and modifiers to create their own playstyle, chaining attacks, crafting builds, and finding new ways to overcome challenges.

The game delivers an experience where every fight feels like a combat dance, offering total freedom for players to express themselves through its battle systems, in a quest to bring back Death itself[,] which, in the game’s lore, has disappeared, causing unexpected consequences for humanity. It’s up to the player to figure out how to fix it.”

The game designer of BloodRush: Undying Wish, Danilo Isamu, commented on the release, stating: “It’s a mix of apprehension and excitement to release the game after more than three years of development. BloodRush’s goal has always been to give players the tools to express themselves through combat — creating builds, combos, and unique strategies. Now it’s time to hand the game over from our hands to the hands of the community.”

He also commented on the comparisons being made to Bloodborne, adding: “Gameplay is much more Devil May Cry than Bloodborne, but visually there are indeed similarities, so the comparison isn’t that crazy.“

The developers also revealed that you can play a demo of BloodRush: Undying Wish on Steam now. The demo will give you an idea of what you’re in for when the July 1^st Early Access release date lands. I’m curious to see what people think of it, but I’m definitely interested, especially if the gameplay leans more into Devil May Cry territory.
