You can also get Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night - Miriam’s Complete Cosmetic Bundle here.
Bloodstained®︎: Ritual of the Night is the FULL game experience, an exploration-focused, side-scroller action RPG packing all of the best features you've come to know and love from the Metroidvania genre into a single, content-packed game.
Play as Miriam, an orphan scarred by an alchemist’s curse which slowly crystallizes her body. In order to save herself, and indeed, all of humanity, she must battle her way through a demon-infested castle summoned by Gebel, her old friend whose body and mind has become more crystal than flesh.
WHAT'S IN THE GAME?
13 FREE DLCs via future content updates. “Speed Demon” Update containing Speed Run Mode, Boss Rush Mode and the Pure Miriam outfit available at launch!
Addictingly tight and satisfying gameplay alongside a rich new story in the gothic dark fantasy style of Koji Igarashi, the celebrated godfather of "Igavania" games.
Story cut scenes and NPC interactions fully voice acted by a star-studded cast, including actors like David Hayter, Ray Chase and Erica Lindbeck to name just a few. (Seriously, we have a lot of voice acting star power in this game, it's kinda nuts...)
Three playable characters, two of which have yet to be revealed...
Literally a metric ton of weapons and spells, which you can upgrade, level up and visually customize.
Beautiful 2.5D graphics: 3D models crafted with a lot of love and care on a 2D game environment. That means lots of cool tricks that "regular" 2D can't do...
THE FUTURE
Expect a worryingly large amount of announcements and updates, everything from updating the look of this page to the game in general. It's going to be one wild ride.

Long time not playing games like this, and I'm satisfied, unique thing I can say it was boring was the end credits, but the game itself is a jewel. Already finished normal and ready for hard! 99,90% map explored, only one boss and one shard missing.
Bloodstained has a lot of weapons, gear and abilities, and really fun methods of improving and customizing the way they work together.
The controls are tight, and the abilities are diverse. The pacing of the game feels excellent, and it does a good job of allowing for speed runs or more cautious exploration.
I'll be the first to admit that I did't particularly love the 3D graphics, the character designs, and other aspects of the game - but after having played the game, I find the experience is far greater than the sum of its parts.
If you like metrovania games, this one is highly recommended.
Bloodstained is a non-vampire related story but filled with demons and alchemists. It plays a lot like the modern Castlevania games and looks stunning on PC. I've been really wowed by the art, level design, characters, and story. Normally I don't buy games at full price... ever. But this game is definitely worth it. I think the shards for power ups is a good idea but I haven't gotten everything figured out yet. Fun game, lots of different kinds of weapons, and nice exploration.
If you enjoyed any of the metriodvania Castlevania's- especially SotN or Laiment- you will love this games's gameplay. It it isn't perfect though. I've stopped counting how many times this game has crashed on me, or times when I was unable to retrieve an item drop because of technical issues. Be ready to have a little bit of patience for this game.
Also, make sure to eat well.
I love it! To be honest with you I wasn't quite sure I was going to like but it's getting better and better!. Customization is great. lots of weapons, items & armor to experiment with. Soundtrack it's outstanding and meaningful. What can I say? This is what a good game is supposed to be!
