“Following a successful Kickstarter campaign, Koji Igarashi and his studio, ArtPlay, along with 505 Games, released Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night in 2019. Bloodstained is a 2.5D Metroidvania and a true spiritual successor to SOTN. Following years of updates, Bloodstained finally gained “Chaos Mode,” the promised co-op mode earlier this year. Thus, it’s time for us to review the game and what Chaos Mode has to offer,” says Co-Optimus.
