Hidden glyphs lead you to snippets of audio explaining MaryвЂ™s backstory, random gangs of vampires await your beatdowns, and jars full of vampire blood scattered across New Marais will upgrade your blood capacity as you smash them. Side missions also make a return in Festival of Bloo, spicing up the journey from story point to story point.

Not having to decide whether to play nice or nasty was curiously freeing, as this karma system has been integral and enjoyable in the series thus far. This is interestingly achieved without the characteristic karma system of inFAMOUS 2 вЂ“ obviously chewing on the necks of innocent bystanders for flight fuel would be considered a faux pas, so after a few voiceover announcements from Zeke stating that Cole had no choice but to survive the matter is put to rest. The core story will see you chasing after Bloody Mary in order to put an end to her and save yourself from your vampirism. ItвЂ™s a bit of a letdown that the extra endurance I earnt for Cole in the main game cannot be taken advantage of here, as I found he had a very short lifespan otherwise.

The health and combat upgrades of the core game are absent, meaning you need to be very careful about keeping a recharge source handy lest you die in seconds. This is especially true when used in conjunction with ColeвЂ™s existing hover ability, because put to proper use you could travel halfway across the city without ever needing to touch down.Д¬ombat mechanics are largely the same вЂ“ you charge up your combat meter to allow you to use impressive finishing moves, and vampires are just as susceptible to being electrocuted as everyone else.

The bat-travel, powered by your bloody appetite, is a very welcome addition as it lets you zip across the landscape with great ease. ItвЂ™s not all bad, though! With new vampiric tastes come new vampiric powers, like the ability to travel at high speed as a cloud of bats and Vamp-Vision, which lets you tell the difference between vampires, tasty humans and vampires in disguise. Great news for Mary, because sheвЂ™s back and ready to raise some hell вЂ“ less great for Cole because he now finds himself with an unwelcome appetite for blood, and the knowledge that come sunrise, heвЂ™ll be a slave to Bloody Mary for the rest of his undead life. Apparently as a Conduit (super-powered individual), ColeвЂ™s blood packs a lot of punch, because Mary comes back and starts draining him like a youth potion. Captured by a group of gentleman with strangely pointy teeth, Cole McGrath the electric wonder finds himself being used to kick-start the corpse of Bloody Mary, an ancient vampire.

It seems like adding vampires or zombies to a game is a staple of add-ons, but this is executed in a way that legitimately seems to tie it into the overall infamous mythos. Not requiring the original game disc to be used at all, this side-story takes place exclusively on a single revamped island from the original game, and features a new power set to go with ColeвЂ™s new, vampy look.ДЇramed by ColeвЂ™s buddy Zeke telling the story to a girl in a bar, Festival of Blood sees Cole facing an all-new enemy during the New Marais holiday of Pyre Day вЂ“ vampires. Festival of Blood is an interesting piece of DLC that sets itself apart from the game it shares a common title with.
