When you think of a game that combines the eldritch terrors of Bloodborne with the high-tech aesthetic of Cyberpunk 2077 you’d expect to get something pretty cool.
Bloodborne is one of my favourite games ever made and Cyberpunk 2077 is a masterpiece in its own right, and while Lost Soul Aside has a lot in common with both titles it’s made headlines for all the wrong reasons…
Before we get into that you should know that you can try the game out for free right now on Steam. A demo of the game can also be found on the PlayStation Store.
I’d urge you to give it a go for yourself and form your own opinion of it, but I’d be surprised if you think any differently to the majority of players right now…

Visually the game is quite stunning, no complaints there, but it’s the gameplay that’s making players laugh.
One example I’ve seen is one of the game’s combat encounters, where they simply stood still as the enemy approached, encircled and proceeded to do absolutely nothing…
Another complaint is the game being filled with invisible walls preventing you from doing any exploring. The game funnels you towards the next objective with thin air rather than anything substantial blocking your path.
With frustrating level design and a lack of aggressive enemies it feels like a revival of Devil May Cry 2…

The game already has Mixed reviews on Steam, with many calling it the worst game to release in 2025 so far.
Again I’d urge you to try the free demo on either Steam or the PlayStation store and form your own opinion of it, but I think we should all be thankful that these demos exist at all, otherwise you could be stuck with a poor game that you can’t refund…
