However, it seems to have witnessed a rocky start in its early days. Especially when it comes to its availability for the PlayStation platform. It looks like most of the fans are not having a good time with Vampire The Masquerade Bloodhunt.
PlayStation fans think Vampire The Masquerade Bloodhunt is made for PC!
For those uninitiated, Bloodhunt is the newest battle royale, being free-to-play of course. It’s developed and published by Sharkmob and is mainly based on the table-top RPG Vampire The Masquerade. Furthermore, it’s also a part of the vast World of Darkness franchise.
Set in the streets and on the rooftops of Prague, the game takes place following a gathering of various Vampires in the city. After the war between the different sects erupts, the Second Inquisition also becomes a part of this.
In this BR title, players take on the roles of those vampires who try to survive the sect war. While battling each other, they have to go against a bigger entity as well which is trying to exterminate the vampires.

Bloodhunt allows the players to customize their character’s appearance while also trying to prevent their identity from getting revealed to the humans. And this practice is called the Masquerade.

Although the battle royale looks promising initially, fans haven’t given it good initial impressions. Especially those owning the PlayStation and trying to have a good time with Bloodhunt.
Going by the recent reactions of the PlayStation users, it seems like the BR is more suited for PC platform than the console. This is what most of the fans expressed in their reactions on the social media. One frustrated player even wrote this for the newly launched title: “This game is s**t on controller. It’s a keyboard mouse game.”
Others were simply not interested enough in going for it whatsoever.
This game is shit on controller. It’s a keyboard mouse game

The UI is clearly designed for mouse-and-keyboard, it works horribly on console, I don't even want to play now
