Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night + Bloodless Rises DLC

Bloodless rises to become the newest playable character in Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night!  

The Bloodstained community has shown us incredibly support, patience, and understanding as we’ve worked to complete each new stage of development and complete content. To thank the community, we are releasing Bloodless today as our latest playable character! Bloodless is an additional playable character that wasn’t included in the previous Development Roadmap. We still have the unnamed playable character that you see on the Roadmap in development.

Bloodless is available to all players, even if you haven’t previously completed the game. Just start a new game and name the save file BLOODLESS (make sure to use ALLCAPS). You will hear Bloodless’ voice and see her as a character option. Choose her, select your difficulty and start the game!

As you explore the castle, you will discover crystal globes that will grant Bloodless new skills and improve her attributes. Each addition making her more deadly to her enemies. Increase your power and defeat your enemies!

Bloodless is launching for free across all platforms along with updates for Randomizer Mode and bug fixes.

Update Notes Version 1.18 will address the following issues:
In addition to Bloodless, we are rolling out significant improvements for Randomizer!

Randomizer bug fixes
Fixed the algorithm so it wouldn't create invalid seeds
Implemented safety chests and lamp, so previously invalid seeds can now be completed. These safety chests will contain the required item to complete.

Randomizer number of possibilities.

1152 combinations from settings:

3 GOAL x 2 KEY ITEM x 2 SAVE/WARP x 3 ITEM x 4 ENEMY DROP x 2 CRAFTING x 2 SHOP x 2 QUEST = 1152 combinations

65,536 combinations per set

The seed consists of 31 bits. 15 of those bits are used to store the settings generated by the initial choices the player makes. The remaining 16 bits are used to generate the randomness in the seed.

2^16 =  65,536 combinations.

Total number of possible combinations for the entire mode:

1152 settings x 65,536 seed combinations = 75,487, 472 total combinations.

Other Changes
 Fixed issue with clan names showing in Save File Selection Screen
 Fixed an issue with clan names in credits
 Fixed minor audio issues

Boss Revenge Mode
It’s time for the bosses of Bloodstained to get their revenge on the heroes!

Boss Revenge mode puts you in control of one of Bloodstained’s notorious villains: Andrealphus, Bathin, Bloodless or Gremory.

Each boss comes equipped with their own roster of abilities, and their own unique play styles..

Once you’ve chosen your character, you’ll challenge a series of heroes: Zangetsu, Dominique and finally, Miriam. The battles are set in their own dedicated spaces. Once you win your fight, you’ll be sent to a transition room to prepare for the next challenge.

It’s time for the villains to have their day! Are you ready to accept the challenge?

Chroma Wheel
Ready for a new look? Todd the Killer Barber has really improved his abilities and is ready to update your style!

Previously you were limited to just a few color options when customizing your look. Now you will have an entire range of colors to choose from.

The variable options can be applied to Hair, Sub Hair Color (A new option!), Outfit, Sub Outfit Color, Skin and Eyes. Currently lip color isn’t an option, but it will be added in the next update.

When you’re ready to try out the new options, head to Todd and help him reach 666 hairstyles so he can have his curse lifted!

We hope you enjoy these new additions to the game!

Other Changes
We want fans to access the content we release as soon as possible, as a result we are making some changes to how content is unlocked. With this new patch we will include the following adjustments:

Unlocked from the start, including new profiles and existing profiles that have not beaten the game:

* Speedrun Mode – Unlocked
* Randomizer Mode – Unlocked
* Boss Revenge Mode – Unlocked
* Zangetsu – Unlocked

Requires game progression to access:

* Boss Rush
* Hard Difficulty
* Nightmare Difficulty

Zangetsu
Once you have completed Bloodstained and gotten the “Good Ending”, you will be able to choose Zangetsu to play through the game a second (or thirtieth) time.
Once selected, players will be able to play through Bloodstained using all of Zangetsu’s movement and combat abilities. Zangetsu is not a shardbinder, so he does not use shards as Miriam did. Instead he uses the power of his sword to dispatch enemies along with some special abilities that consume MP.

Playing Bloodstained as Zangetsu is designed to be a different experience than playing as Miriam with a focus on fast-paced combat. Consumables, equipment, crafting, treasure chests, quests and story cutscenes are disabled when playing as Zangetsu.

Randomizer
Randomizer allows you to adjust eight different game parameters to mix up your experience as you play through the main story of Bloodstained. You will be able to adjust the goals of their overall playthrough and quests, the location of save and warp rooms, shops, key items and also enemy drops.

For example, you could set up a game where enemy drops (shards & items) are totally mixed up, meaning that you could end up with the ‘Release Toad’ from an ‘Aello’ instead of a Toad.

Finally, you’re able to access the seed of your randomized game in case you want to write it down and keep it for reference or share it with others. The game also provides a timer to track how fast you are able to complete the game, so if you share a seed, you can compare who can complete the course the fastest.

The eight parameters that can be adjusted are:

Goal: This determines the win condition of the given Seed, and in turn has an effect on which items are designated “Key items” and how much of the map will be in play.
 
Key Items: These are items that are required to complete the playthrough. Other options can further alter these items. Items cannot be randomized in a way that prevents your progress.

* Shuffled: (Default) The Key Items are mixed up, but will always spawn in a Key Item location. Key items you earn from defeating a boss (ex. Double Jump) will still come from a boss – but not the same boss!

* Anywhere: Key items are added to the general item pool and can be found anywhere, depending on settings. With this parameter set, Boss rewards may be minor or even trivial.

Save / Warp Rooms:

* Unchanged: The rooms appear as they do in the core game.

* Mixed: (Default) The Save and Warp rooms are shuffled.

Items:

* Retain Type: Items of a certain type, such as weapons, will always spawn where a weapon would spawn. For example, a chest that originally held a Whip may now hold a Rapier, but will never hold an HP consumable.

* Retain Method: Items will always appear from the same method of spawn as they originally did. Ie. Items found in chests will shuffle amongst themselves, items hidden in walls will remain hidden in walls, etc.

* Total Random: (Default) This lets any item spawn anywhere, regardless of the original item in said location. There may be additional limitations based on the other settings.

Enemy Drops: This setting governs anything dropped by enemies.

 * Unchanged: Enemy Drops remain consistent with the main game.

* Mixed Shards: Enemies can drop any shards. Note if “Retain Type” is selected, this will keep Shards of the same type together (If an enemy drops an Effective Shard, it will now drop a different EffectiveShard).

* Mixed Items: (Default) Only the physical items dropped by an enemy can be randomized. If “Retain Type” is selected, the drops will remain similar to the original setting (A weapon drop is replaced by a weapon drop).

* Chaos: Items and Shards can both be randomly assigned and replaced by anything.

Quests
 
* Unchanged: (Default) Quests are unchanged.

* Shuffled: This distributes Quest Rewards in accordance with the other settings.Quest requirements will remain the same, but rewards are altered. This will obey the “Retain Type” (similar items shuffled in) “Retain Method” (current items are all shuffled among themselves) and “Total Random” settings.

 Shops

* Unchanged: (Default) The shop is unchanged from the main game.

* Shuffled: This will obey the “Retain Type” (similar items shuffled in) “Retain Method” (current items are all shuffled amongst themselves) and “Total Random” settings.

Crafting : This setting affects all the crafting systems, Weapons, Cooking and Shards.

* Unchanged: (Default) The shop is unchanged from the main game.

* Shuffled: “Retain Type” governs the crafting ingredients. “Retain Method” governs the Crafting Results, and “Total Random” mixes both.

    Examples:
Shuffled Set – Retain Method
Core game: Mithril + Damascus = Swordbreaker
Randomizer: Mithril + Damascus = Dragon Shoes

Shuffled Set – Retain Type
Core game: Mithril + Damascus = Swordbreaker
Randomizer: Ectoplasm + Saltpeter = Swordbreaker

Shuffled Set – Total Random
Core game: Mithril + Damascus = Swordbreaker
Randomizer: Gold + Baselard = Country Dress
