Halloween may have come and gone, but inFamous: Festival of Blood is still available on the PlayStation Store for those who haven’t yet had their fill of macabre antics for this year. Originally announced at Gamescom in August, Festival of Blood is a bite-size title in the inFamous series.

This standalone adventure offers a tongue-in-cheek take on the inFamous universe. The game opens with Zeke attempting to impress a woman at a bar, by telling her an elaborate (and completely made-up) story about one of his and Cole’s exploits.

Festival of Blood is set in New Marais (returning from inFamous 2), but this time the story takes place on Pyre Night (a sort of cross between Halloween and Guy Fawkes Night, when people dress up in costumes, drink more alcohol than is healthy, and set off a dangerous amount of fireworks).

The story proper begins with Cole investigating some old catacombs, after hearing screams from inside. He is then captured by a pack of vampires, forced to resurrect a powerful female vampire named Bloody Mary, and unwillingly turned into one of the blood-suckers himself.
