Hey folks!
Bloodthief launches in about 24 hours (Monday, Sept 22 at 10 AM PST), just wanted to do a post and give you all some key details
PRICE
Price will be: $19.99 USD with regional adjusted pricing + a 10% launch discount
MOST IMPORTANT: UPDATE YOUR GPU DRIVERS
AMD 25.8.1 Driver had a number of issues with many games, Bloodthief included. If you currently have this driver installed, Bloodthief may not work! Update your drivers to the latest (right now that is 25.9.2).
Nvidia Driver 576.52 is also known to give a lot of folks issues. If you use Nvidia and have this driver installed, update your drivers!
If you're still running into driver issues launch the game with the DirectX 12 launch option.
WHAT'S IN THE GAME
31 levels in the main story
Over 20 weapons
Lots of new enemies
100+ secrets
22 achievements
Tons of surprises...
STEAM DECK / CONTROLLER SUPPORT
Yes Steam Deck and controllers are supported (steam gave it a "Playable" rating), BUT, I highly recommend playing with Mouse Keyboard as Bloodthief is very difficult with the joysticks. I'm thinking of adding some sort of auto-aim feature for joysticks post launch, drop me a message in the discussion boards or on discord if you want this!
BLOODTHIEF OST
It will be for sale soon after launch!
WHAT HAPPENS TO THE DEMO?
Demo progress will not transfer over, but the demo will remain available and the demo leaderboards will remain intact (though they will be completely separate from the full game leaderboards).
WHERE TO GET SUPPORT
Best place to get fast support would be the Discord Server, this is where the Bloodthief community is! But I'll be monitoring the discussion boards and the discord server for issues. You can also email me at blargis3d@gmail.com
That's all for now!
