Fantasy Flight Games has announced the release of a new updated edition of
Bloodbound. Sporting new art and graphic design, this popular social deduction game in the vein of
Shadow Hunters positions 6-13 players into two houses of vampires. Before play, each player is given a secret character, then shows a clue to their affiliation to their left side neighbor. The start player holds the bloody dagger, and on their turn can pass the weapon or attack. Wounded players reveal tokens from their character card, either giving hints to their affiliation, or showing their rank within the house. Since the goal of the game is to kill the leader of the opposing house, showing rank can be a dangerous move, however once a player reveals their rank they are able to use their special ability. In games with an odd number of players, a neutral player attempts to disrupt both of the houses.
Blood Bound should be available in the third quarter of 2017.
