Original developer WayForward upgrades its 2011 classic with new voice acting by Laura Bailey and Troy Baker, sharpened visuals, and rebalanced gameplay. Run, jump, cut, and feed your way through a massive underground castle to confront Rayne’s father at the behest of the Brimstone Society.
BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites is vastly the same good and challenging game released years ago. Laura Bailey returning as Rayne is a welcome addition, and so are the new balance changes to difficulty which make the game more accessible but not less challenging.
As a fan of the original two BloodRayne games I am excited to see one of my favorite dhampirs back in the gaming spotlight. On the other hand, I wish that Ziggurat would have brought those remastered games from PC to console. Betrayal: Fresh Bites isn’t a bad game at all, its just not a great example of BloodRayne at it’s best; even with the new HD...
BloodRayne Betrayal: Fresh Bites allows us to remember the classic game released 10 years ago completely renovated, updating its visual and sound aspect. Offering a more polished gameplay than the original but at the same time maintaining the same level of challenge.

Am I missing something? I have always been told that BloodRayne Betrayal was a really bad game, one of the worst titles made by WayForward. But I’ll be honest with you, despite being a bit janky and a bit unfair at times, I really enjoyed it. Either this is a case of a underrated gem or the remaster fixed a ton of the original game’s issues.
