BloodRayne to Rise from the Grave

Ziggurat Interactive announces a deal with Majesco Entertainment to purchase multiple game licenses. These include Advent Rising, Raze's Hell, and Flip’s Twisted World. But the centerpiece of their announcement is the BloodRayne franchise, and they announce they are working with original developer Terminal Reality to update the PC editions of the Vampire games to improve compatibility and add enhancements (so Terminal Reality is rising from the dead too?). It also sounds like they intend to extend the series with new games:
Ziggurat Interactive is already working with original BloodRayne developer, Terminal Reality, to update the PC versions of the BloodRayne games to improve compatibility and provide various enhancements. Ziggurat is also developing plans to further explore and expand BloodRayne’s already rich universe.

“BloodRayne is a beloved franchise with a huge fan base and we’re extremely appreciative of the opportunity to be stewards for this fantastic series,” said Ziggurat Interactive’s President, Wade Rosen. “Players the world over fondly remember titles like BloodRayne and Advent Rising and having the opportunity to not only bring these games to a new audience but to expand their universes is something we take seriously.”

"We are really excited to have this opportunity to revisit one of our favorite game series and make it available to a new audience," said Mark Randel, President, Terminal Reality, Inc.

The third-person horror action series BloodRayne introduced gamers to Rayne, a brutal half-vampire beauty traveling the world to foil Nazi plans, battle supernatural threats, and along the way, uncover more about her own complex past. Featuring a unique protagonist, fast-action combat, vampiric powers, and an extensive globe-spanning storyline, BloodRayne offered a distinctly different and exciting gameplay experience that encouraged being “bad to be good.” Beloved by fans and critics alike, BloodRayne became a true cross-media phenomenon, spanning games, comics, and films across the early 2000s.

BRING BACK NOCTURNE!!!!! You do know Blood Rayne was a spin off of a character from Nocturne.

Ah yes, Nocturne, the beautiful game with realistic trench coat physics and other amazing features, that ran at a whopping 3 fps on my computer.

It was pretty cool, but yes, so far ahead of it's time in terms of processing/gpu requirements that it made Crysis look tame. Also it felt extremely unoptimized, but who knows. Also, the controls were a bit rough to say the least. I didn't know Bloodrayne was a spinoff from Nocturne, but I could never finish Nocturne on PC back in the day, it was literally unplayable. I am reasonably sure I had Bloodrayne on PS2? It was also borderline unplayable due to vertigo from the stiff chase cam, at least for me.

So yes, I'd be interested in a Nocturne remake/remaster, and possibly even this Bloodrayne ...revamp.

Ah, yes, fond memories of playing this for the titties and then almost throwing up the first time I saw a person bifurcated vertically.

I'd love more Advent Rising as well. Really enjoyed the first game, and it left on a major cliffhanger.

Nocturne was so ahead of it's time graphically. I remember when the system specs wanted like a 500mhz computer when like 350 was the most people could practically afford then. I still picked up the game despite not meeting the required specs and yeah, it ran horrendously but I had a blast with it. The moody atmosphere, the lighting effects and sound. Was awesome. I still remember how you could blow limbs off which was pretty big back then and literally blow off a vampires face with the elephant rifle. It was glorious for it's time when not many games allowed that stuff with the amount of detail it had.

Completely agree, Nocturne was amazing. In my mind's eye it would still look great today. Not many people seem to recall Nocturne. Refreshing!

Am I missing something? Terminal Reality doesn't exist anymore.

Edit: Ok the company doesn't exist; but Mark is still the president, probably working with him alone since he's a one-man company himself
