Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is about to receive its version 1.5 update with Chaos Mode and Versus Mode. This goes live for Switch on May 16, 2024. On the same day, three premium (paid) cosmetic packs and one free pack for Miriam will be available.

Chaos Mode involves going through randomized rooms to defeat demons and bosses. Versus Mode, on the other hand, has players going up against each other.

Chaos Mode

Chaos Mode is local or online co-op action that you can play solo, with a friend or be matched with other players on the same system. Fight through a series of randomized rooms to defeat demons and bosses. Complete challenges before each boss to get powerful upgrades! How long will you survive?

Versus Mode

VS Mode is a special PVP mode created just for Ritual of the Night.

At the beginning of the match, players will enter a room exclusive to the match battle. Wave after wave of demons will begin to attack both players. When you defeat the demons, you will gain souls. Souls can be spent at the central statue (shop) to upgrade your weapons, armor or items.

You will be able to purchase attacks that will negatively affect your opponent. Fill their room with fog, reverse their controls and more! The winner is the player that survives the longest.

Versus Mode supports local and online play with friends or matchmaking with other players on the same platform. Please note that Chaos and Versus Modes do not support cross-platform play.

More details on each game mode will be revealed when they go live.

Cosmetic Packs

1.5 also includes three premium (paid) cosmetic packs and one free pack for Miriam that will change her appearance in the game. Each cosmetic pack has multiple unique clothing items and weapons, each with upgradeable stats. Premium Cosmetic Packs will be available for purchase on each platform’s online store. Equipping a complete set of cosmetic pack items will enable a special stat bar for that specific pack.

Included with 1.5 is a free cosmetic pack for Miriam that will automatically be added to everyone’s inventory when it is released.

Premium DLC Cosmetic Pack assets will only download after purchase.

This wraps up the major updates for Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. The only other thing in the works is Classic II: Dominique’s Curse, more Premium DLC for the game, which “brings the same retro-gameplay as Classic Mode but with a bigger map and its own canon storyline”. Further details will follow.
