"BloodRayne has built a loyal following of fans and established herself as
one of interactive entertainment's most popular action heroines," said Ken
Gold, Vice President of Marketing for Majesco. "We're thrilled to see our
franchise expand into the handheld arena and believe its fast-paced acrobatic
combat will make BloodRayne a must-have game for the PSP handheld system."
Born from the unnatural union of vampire and human, BloodRayne is blessed
with the powers of a vampire but cursed with the unquenchable thirst for blood
and a weakness to sunlight. BloodRayne for the PSP handheld system will
explore BloodRayne's own purpose and history, explaining and resurrecting
'dead' characters from previous games while developing new characters
specifically for the PSP handheld system.
Additionally, BloodRayne for the PSP handheld system features two-player,
co-op wireless multiplayer with a playable second character. Players engage
in extremely brutal combat with a unique "kill system" based on racking up
high scores by linking chains and combos, and gaining valuable bonus
multipliers. The "kill system" also allows players to develop their character
by unlocking devastating new moves.
BloodRayne will be unveiled during the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3)
being held May 18-20 in the Los Angeles Convention Center, booth 846 in the
South Hall, in Los Angeles, CA.
