3->[[AC:The Brimstone Society has summoned Rayne for one last mission to lead a group of soldiers into a giant underground castle to do battle against none other than her own father, Kagan. When the soldiers prove ineffective against Kagan’s supernatural menaces, it’s up to Rayne to run, jump, cut, and feed her way through gruesome foes, deadly traps, tricky platforming sections, and horrifying bosses. It’s Rayne’s last job — will she “clean house” or find herself six feet under?]]

6''[=BloodRayne=]: Betrayal'' (2011) is the third game in the ''VideoGame/BloodRayne'' series after ''VideoGame/{{BloodRayne|1}}'' and ''VideoGame/BloodRayne2''. [[OddballInTheSeries Unlike the previous two]], which were {{Third Person Shooter}}s made by Terminal Reality, this one is an {{Animesque}} 2D action platformer, made by Creator/WayForwardTechnologies.

8After a group of soldiers she leads proves ineffective in fighting Kagan's forces, the {{dhampyr}} Rayne must take up arms herself.

10!!This game provides examples of the following tropes:
11
12* TwoDVisualsThreeDEffects: In ''[=BloodRayne=]: Betrayal'', most of the blood splatters, explosions and slime splatters are this. It mildly clashes with the game's otherwise 2D-art style.
13* AdaptationDyeJob: Rayne's eyes are changed from green to red, [[CurtainsMatchTheWindow matching her hair color]] as a result.
14* {{Animesque}}: The art style of the game is reminiscent of anime, taken up another notch in ''Fresh Bites" with Rayne's artwork as shown in this page's image where her face is closer to a typical anime girl.
15%%* BloodierAndGorier:
16* BossSubtitles: Just before the boss battles in ''Betrayal''.
17* BottomlessPit: Par for the course in ''[=BloodRayne=]: Betrayal''.
18* TheCameo: [[VideoGame/ABoyAndHisBlob The Boy and His Blob]] show up in Chapter 15 in ''Betrayal''.
19* CleavageWindow: Rayne's outfit shows off the upper half of her cleavage.
20* GiantEnemyCrab: The Crab Puncher (no, not [[VideoGame/MegaMan10 that one]]), the first boss from ''[=BloodRayne=]: Betrayal'' is a [[KillerRobot giant mechanical crab]].
21* GunsAreUseless: Averted. Rayne's magnum is quite powerful, able to knock most mooks off their feet.
22* LoadBearingBoss: Rayne herself lampshades this at the start of Betrayal's final level, where she must escape the collapsing castle after defeating the final boss in the previous level.
23-->'''Rayne:''' Ugh, I didn't realize he was a load-bearing demon!
24%%* RankInflation: The ranks are judged by the points you've earned in a level.
25* UpdatedReRelease: The ''Fresh Bites'' re-release adds a new rebalanced difficulty mode while keeping the original difficulty as an option, extra bug fixes, and full voice-acting from the series' original cast.
26%%* Video Game Dashing: This game has the [[VideoGame/MegaManX X & Zero]] variety.
27%%* Wall Jump: Rayne can do this in this game, given it's a 2D platformer.
28* WhyAmITicking: Rayne can infect enemies by biting them, making them turn green before detonating them. It's capable of infecting other enemies, thus causing chain reactions.
29* XRaySparks:
30** If Rayne is struck by Kagan's lightning, her skeleton flashes for the duration of the spell. Also happens when you beat him the first time, he electrocutes her to stun her.
31** The "Electric Eyes" also do this if you try to go Raven Form in front of them. For some reason, the electric frogs do not cause this effect.
