BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites Arrives on Switch, Console, and PC — 2D Platforming Action Makes a Blood-Drenched Return
Publisher of retro-and-modern games, Ziggurat Interactive, released BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox, and Switch. The remastered and modernized version of the hit 2D hack ‘n’ slash platformer features all-new voice acting performed by the original BloodRayne cast — Laura Bailey (Rayne) and Troy Baker (Kagan). The game is available digitally on Windows PC, PlayStation, Switch, and Xbox One, as well as a multiplatform physical release through Limited Run Games.
“This is really a special day for BloodRayne fans all over the world as we relaunch and update the franchise for modern consoles,” said Michael Devine, SVP of Business Development at Ziggurat Interactive. “It has been our vision working side by side with Wayforward to continue Rayne’s journey and I’m happy to say this is just the beginning.”
Released in 2011, the original BloodRayne Betrayal was met with passionate reviews for its gorgeous graphics and punishing difficulty. This iteration in the series changed things up by switching from a 3D format to a fast-paced, 2D side-scroller. As Rayne, players will battle through 15 levels as they wend their way through a hidden castle where a sinister gathering is taking place. It’s Rayne’s last job — will she “clean house” or find herself six feet under?
BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites Features:
- All-New Voice Acting: Originally released without any spoken dialog, the new BloodRayne Betrayal will feature AAA-quality voice acting by Laura Bailey and Troy Baker reprising their roles as Rayne and Kagan.
