Punch Blast's the first, and it's a bit of a disappointment, frankly. Then there are the new attack moves, unlocked by repeatedly staking the undead. There's also a huge devil-like Firstborn to contend with from time to time - it can disguise itself as a human, and it continues the developer's slightly irritating fondness for teleporting foes.
Enemies like the wall-clinging Harpy, armed, for some reason, with Uzis, and like straight-up vamps, some of whom have pinched Rage's wing-sticks. On top of that, you'll have a handful of new toys to play with. You've got the entire south island to mess around in, and a lengthy section of all-new catacomb that leads from the church down to the Sea Fort. Hopefully without undue, well, collateral damage.įestival of Blood's campaign may be short, clocking in around the two-hour mark, but it plays out in a decent chunk of the city. With dawn as the deadline, and Cole's Amp replaced with a splintered crucifix (don't worry, he still wields it like a baseball bat, and can pull off a new 'Stakeout' finishing move to boot) McGrath must put everything right again and get himself back to normal. New Marais is locked in the throes of a spooky torchlit festival, the cinema's showing films like Die Cooper and Assassins Bleed, and Cole's had an unfortunate run in with a frosty upper-class vampire lady known as Bloody Mary, who's turned him into a vampire too.
It's cheesy, it's creepy, and it's pleasantly inconsequential. Sucker Punch's latest electrical adventure - it's not DLC, really, as you can play it without owning InFamous 2 - is an old-fashioned Halloween Special when you really get down to it. Such hazards come with the territory as far as Festival of Blood's concerned. Some of them were just, y'know, dead - partygoers in fancy dress costumes who I'd been cheerfully lamping for the last ten minutes or so. That's until I started to realise that some of them weren't actually undead. 'Pyre Night' celebrations had gripped New Marais pretty hard, real honest-to-goodness bloodsuckers were thronging the streets, and around the town square, I was laying into the undead left, right and centre, and feeling pretty good about things. The thing about hunting vampires at Halloween is, well, you're going to have some problems with collateral damage.
