The first details are now available for the Bloodborne Collector’s Edition Strategy Guide, which you can preorder with this page on Amazon. Fans of Dark Souls should be happy to learn that the same company that published the guides from those games, Future Press, has been brought back. The official strategy guides for Dark Souls and Dark Souls 2 are renowned for their quality and huge amount of depth.
The Bloodborne Collector’s Edition Strategy Guide should be another excellent book. The hardcover is going to have 400 pages in total. Unfortunately, we do not know if a paperback version will be available as well. The collector’s edition book has an ISBN-10 of 3869930691 and ISBN-13 of 978-3869930695.
The release date for the hardcover is set for the 24th of March, which is, of course, the same day as the launch of the videogame. The PlayStation 4 exclusive is developed by From Software, the same developer of the above-mentioned Dark Souls series.
Compared to the studio’s previous efforts, Bloodborne is faster and rewards more aggressive play. In combat, you can no longer use a traditional shield to block incoming attacks. To offset this, you can regain health by simply attacking and defeating enemies.
