The roguelite first-person shooter Bloodshed is finally leaving Early Access, with a full release set for May 22 on Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG, as announced by Headup and com8com1 Software. The game first launched in Early Access on December 14, 2024.
Survive the hordes
Bloodshed blends retro-style visuals with the fast-paced, horde-slaying action of Vampire Survivors, but in first-person. You’ll face endless waves of cultists, demons, and undead, gaining experience, upgrading weapons, and trying to stay alive as long as possible. Death isn’t the end, you keep your earned cash for permanent upgrades, unlocking new abilities, weapons, and characters.
Build your perfect run
Each run lets you experiment with different characters, weapons, and skills, shaping your strategy to handle the swarming enemies. You can stick with auto-shooting for a Survivors-like experience or switch to manual aiming for full control. Either way, expect intense fights across different biomes, all backed by a dynamic soundtrack that reacts to the chaos.
