The hunt never ends
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that folks are still putting in work to suss out secrets and rare occurrences inBloodborne. From Software’s action-RPGs are shrouded in an air of mystery that keeps dedicated fans searching, sharing, and theorizing. That’s true of theDark Soulsgames and it’s certainly true ofBloodbornethanks in no small part to its procedurally-generatedChalice Dungeons.
I had my fill of the dreaded tunnels while earning the game’s platinum trophy. I never want to explore those tombs again. But if someone finds something cool — say, a certain enemy shown in a pre-release demo that seemingly didn’t make it into the final game — then sure, I definitely want to see it.
That’s what we have here, essentially. A group of so-calledTomb Prospectorshappened upon an undead giant with a flaming blade, which is a rare, sought-after Chalice Dungeon find. For the vast majority ofBloodbornefans, the only other time we’ve seen this variant (if at all) was during a 2014 PlayStation Experience showcase led by From Software’s Hidetaka Miyazaki. Both the pre-release and retail-version footage of this “Flaming Undead Giant” are shown here in a video fromMoros Nyx:
It’s maybe not the craziest discovery in and of itself, but it is a sign that there’s more to find. To that end, Moros Nyxposted a recapof other potential discoveries lurking out there and made a call to action.
“I never claimed I was the first to find the flaming blade giant. In fact,muchstranger things have probably been found, but never reported because of the great amount of know-how of the dungeons required to understand what is and what isn’t rare! Many hunters may see something odd and then just dismissed it because they though it is normal.
So this post is acall for everyone who has seen or in the future sees something strangeto report it in/r/tombprospectors, or in the/r/bloodborneDiscord’s “tomb prospectors” channel! Don’t keep quiet about it! Worst case scenario it’s nothing special, but the Tomb Prospector community will be thankful for you sharing it regardless!”
If you’d like to see this undead giant for yourself, use the glyph “pa6ssc6u” to generate a dungeon.
