Playing BloodRayne is like watching a horror movie. Except you're the movie monster, and the victims are all Nazis, so you don't feel sorry for them. A classic hack-and-slash action game with variety of guns in the mix to spice things up. Hm? What's that you say? You were expecting a game from 2002 to have a story? Perish the thought and see disappointment flee from you. Rayne does deliver suitably action-moviesque …

It's time... If games like Stellar Blade, Nier Automata, and Bayonetta can succeed, then it's time for Rayne to be rebooted. But let's talk about the original. It's a cult classic. Even for its time it was rough around the edges. It feels like a boomer shooter under the hood with auto-aim (popular for 3rd person action games at the time) and extremely wonky melee combat slapped on top. But what Bloodrayne had was …

So imagine Tomb Raider, Blade, and a Hot Topic clearance sale had a baby — and that baby was raised by Nazis and bad camera angles. That’s BloodRayne: Terminal Cut. You play as Rayne, a half-vampire, half-human, all-attitude goth queen who solves international occult conspiracies by doing cartwheels and decapitating people. The story makes zero sense, but who cares when you can drink Nazi blood through your thighs?

Goth game about killing nazis. Hell yeah.

84% of the 184 Steam reviewers we collected recommend BloodRayne: Terminal Cut. The complaint that keeps coming up: weak remaster with 60 FPS lock and bugs. Deal-breaker or nitpick?

I was like 11/12 and played the hell out of it. Parents did not pay attention to game ratings at all.😂 And hey I grew up okay. Sort of. Maybe. Kinda.

She has me at 17, in 1998, and by the time I was a little kid, Terminal Reality's Bloodrayne was her favorite game of all time. We both tried and failed to beat it many times over the years (Despite that, when Bloodrayne 2 came out, she bought and beat it same-day, in one sitting!). My mother unfortunately passed away at the age of 43, and two years later almost…

Sheesh💀 It's a very campy B-movie romp, with elements I still think really fondly of. But more than anything, I'm grateful for the skills I learned and the folks I met on that project.

neutral · AI labelView post →Blood Knights on Steam Deck.. Blood Knights on Steam Deck. Critics didn’t care for this one, but I’m into it. Think Bloodrayne if it were reskinned as a bargain-bin Diablo—and I don’t mean that as an insult. It’s pulpy, fast, and surprisingly playable on a handheld. You’re controlling a human and a vampire bound together, which makes for a fun B-movie premise. The visuals won’t melt anyone’s face off, but the story hook keeps me button mashing. @[email protected]

Ok, forget whether it's a "favorite" and just tell me *any* video game you've played with a vampire protagonist. There are plenty of games with vampires as enemies but I want more games where I get to *be* a vampire. Especially games where you can refill your health by drinking an enemy's blood. That's just a fun game mechanic. I think the only games I've played where you can actually drink an enemy's blood is probably…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →BloodRayne has that early 2000s energy, music, techno, slow motion and very over-the-top action, very Matrix-style, mixed with Underworld. Excellent. You’re Rayne, a dhampir, half human, half vampire, who kills Nazis and monsters. It might sound ridiculous, but honestly, it’s a concept that’s very well executed. The story does what it needs to do without going overboard. It’s straightforward and there’s nothing wrong with it. Yes, it does have some noticeable historical inaccuracies that can…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have a genuinely a hard choice between recommending BloodRayne or not. It is very much a product of its time, mainly the culmination of the late 90's, early-2000's: leather clothing, one-liners, akimbo gun-fu, slow motion and sexual undertones. Then again, the vampire theme has always been inherently sexual. And BloodRayne takes that at face value, hell, even the logo is phallic. Okay, it is not as horny as Steam's "New and Upcoming" section, but... That said, the game has some pretty…

Prior to this I had never played through any of the series, so I wasn't wearing have any nostalgia goggles going in and still loved it. An over-the-top fantastical story with a third-reich hit list, organs from an ancient evil, vampires, werewolves, and a whole bunch of expertly delivered sassy one liners from Rayne herself. It's a timecapsule to an era where games were equal parts gory and horny. I found the gameplay to be…

This game is like someone took Indiana Jones, The Matrix, and Underworld, threw them in a blender, and said, “Let’s make chaos sexy.” And honestly? It works. Sure, the graphics are a little dated — like 2002 called and wants its polygons back — but once you start slicing up Nazis with a pair of arm-mounted swords while dodging bullets in slow motion like Neo’s goth…
