Everything We Know About #BLUD
#BLUD Story Plot
#BLUD follows the story of Becky Brewster, the new kid in town who seems like a bright-eyed, innocent student. However, she soon reveals her true colors as a badass descendant of a legendary vampire-hunting bloodline. Watch as Becky takes on invading vampires at Carpentersville High, fighting them off with style and snapping selfies along the way!
#BLUD Gameplay
Similar to how Cuphead drew inspiration from the 1930s Betty Boop aesthetic, #BLUD channels the vibrant energy of 90s cartoons like The Powerpuff Girls and Courage the Cowardly Dog. This ultra-fast-paced action-adventure game combines hyperkinetic gameplay with dungeon-crawling aspects as you hunt down evil forces. Set in various parts of the school and city, players discover missions via social media to earn upgrades, using a trusty hockey stick to defeat countless undead foes. Despite its roots in children's cartoons, #BLUD delivers a distinctly R-rated twist, reimagining these beloved shows for an adult audience.
#BLUD Trailer
Newest Trailer
The #BLUD Gameplay Trailer kicks off by showcasing various explorable areas, including the cafeteria and the town, before cutting to a dramatic scene of a man seemingly murdered by a vampire. The trailer then dives into the fast-paced action gameplay, featuring Becky battling vampires, dodging, and sprinting around the city. Dialogue boxes appear in a Persona-inspired style, with character portraits next to the text, but with a more cartoony and animated flair.
We then see Becky taking down more enemies using new weapons and abilities. She upgrades her hockey stick with different attachments, like an umbrella or a shovel, each offering unique abilities—such as the shovel acting as a fast travel tool.
Becky also wields other weapons like throwing pencils and bombs. The trailer also showcases a puzzle sequence in a lab where Becky rearranges a model of planets. Additionally, it reveals various travel areas and the diverse, hellish creatures she'll face, ranging from ordinary vampires to undead snowman-like monsters.
