In 2009, director Hidetaka Miyazaki introduced the world to Demon’s Souls, an intensely unforgiving dark fantasy RPG that would go on to become Dark Souls. His next game, Bloodborne, shares a lot with his past work, only this time it’s being gifted to us wrapped in a delightfully gothic package, complete with darker and creepier environments that will be brimming with hideous monsters whose only purpose is to get cut right down the middle by my comically large sword.

Bloodborne was one of the many horror games that were present at Gamescom last week. If your heart aches for more games like this, you can find it among a bunch of similarly dark-looking games in our list of the biggest horror headlines to come out of the expo last week.
Bloodborne releases exclusively on the PS4 in early 2015.
