Mechanics from Bloodborne include chargeable heavy attacks, faster, more aggressive combat, and a weapon dependent Stance System. Co-op and invasions work similarly to how they did in Demon's Souls and Dark Souls, using soul level range rather than the soul memory system from Dark Souls II but with an added adjustment based on how far the player's weapons have been upgraded. Combat borrows heavily from the first Dark Souls, including many of the player animations, though some features from Dark Souls II return, such as Skill Point Reset items and optional voice chat. Gameplay is a 'best of' the mechanics from the previous Souls games and Bloodborne.
