Making Bloodborne Videos, Part 1

IGN has published the first part of what is likely to be at least a couple of videos documenting the making of Bloodborne, From Software’s upcoming Victorian horror action-RPG. The video includes some footage and concept art that was, to my knowledge, never shown before, so it’s potentially worth watching even for those of you who followed development very closely and know already all there is to know about Bloodborne’s design philosophy and art design:

Additionally, producer Masaaki Yamagiwa confirmed that Bloodborne will also feature shields, though they are going to have a smaller role in combat:

Masaaki Yamagiwa, producer at Sony’s Japan Studio, told IGN, “There are shields in the game. However if you’re always standing back and guarding, you’ll die very quickly. So you have to incorporate it into your strategy of how you play and fight.”
