Bloodborne Kart back without Bloodborne and with a new release date

Do you remember the fan made spin-off Bloodborne Kart? Of course you do, it looked utterly brilliant!

The project was first announced back in 2022 by game dev Lilith Walther, a name you may recognise as the brains behind the PS1-inspired Bloodborne demake (you can check out our Ian giving that particular game a shot below).

Walther initially planned on releasing Bloodborne Kart earlier this year. But, alas, it didn’t come to be, as back in January, Bloodborne IP holder Sony got in touch with the team and informed them they needed to “scrub the branding off of” the game.

At this time, the Bloodborne Kart developer assured its community this wasn’t the end of the game, but it needed more time to ensure it wasn’t going to tread on Sony’s toes. And, that brings us to today, with the reveal of the “legally distinct” Nightmare Kart.
