''[=BloodRayne=] 2'' is a 2004 ActionAdventure ThirdPersonShooter developed by Terminal Reality and published by Majesco. It is the sequel to ''VideoGame/{{BloodRayne|1}}''.
The sequel takes place decades after the first game ends, set around modern times where the {{dhampyr}} Rayne must take down an evil cult formed by the offspring of her vampire father Kagan, who has created a substance that's blocking out the sun, allowing vampires to roam free.
Followed by 2011's ''VideoGame/BloodRayneBetrayal'', a 2D action platformer.

Rayne and Severin are on the outs with Brimstone, and Rayne herself has to inherit her father's empire despite her distaste of everything related to vampires and humans in order to try and save the humans on the surface.]]
* ArchnemesisDad: Kagan is this to Rayne. Being a ChildByRape from a complete bastard of a vampire will do that to you.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Ephemera and Ferril are the best fighters in the Cult of Kagan (other than Kagan himself), which is not surprising considering they're Rayne's full-blooded vampire half-sisters.

He seems to be trying to anger Rayne, but it is also true that he raped ''many'' human women to sire dhampyrs, and then killed them and their families afterwards as "[[{{KickTheDog}} policy]]".
* CainAndAbel: Rayne has been hunting and killing her half-siblings for decades. Ephemera, Ferril, and Xerx all try to kill one another at some point.
* CastFromHitPoints: If Rayne fires her guns without filling their reservoirs from the blood of her enemies for ammo, they drain hers instead.
* ChainPain: Rayne's harpoon chain can hurl foes like ragdolls with it.

* CombatSadomasochist: The vamps who sometimes sound like they're enjoying themselves a little too much while Rayne kills them.

* TheJoysOfTorturingMooks: Certain puzzles can only be solved by using your harpoon to throw your enemies into deadly hazards.

%%** The minions in the second game count as well.
%%--->'''Minion:''' LET IT FLOOOOOWWW!
* MadScientist: Xerx. He invents the Sun Gun and Shroud, among others, and is a sycophant to Kagan.
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: Kagan has sired many offspring with many women, mostly without consent.
%%* MeaningfulName: Ferril, Ephemera, Severin to name a few.
* MeleeATrois: In the final levels of ''[=BloodRayne=] 2'', Rayne must fight her way to the top of [[spoiler:Kagan's]] downtown highrise, which is already under siege by Ferril's forces with all factions attacking the others on sight.
%%* MirrorBoss: The Kestrel mini-bosses.
%%* MissionControl: Severin in the second game serves this function.
* MrFanservice: For someone with so little screentime and [[NonActionGuy absolutely no action scenes]], Severin has become this more handily than anyone else in the franchise. It's because of Severin that Kagan hasn't been fitted with leather pants. It's because of Severin that all other [[ShipSinking ships arrive presunk]].
%%* MsFanservice: Rayne ([[HotterAndSexier arguably moreso]] in here), Ephemera, and Ferril.
* NoOntologicalInertia: A funny subversion at the end. [[spoiler:After Rayne defeats the final boss, she observes that his primary work, an alchemical cloud covering the land that allows vampires to walk under the sun, has not dissipated. Rayne remarks off-handedly to her partner, "I half-expected everything to go back to normal once he was dead. I guess that wasn't very realistic, huh?"]]
* OlderThanTheyLook: Rayne is close to 90 when the game starts, but looks no older than 25.
* ParentalFavoritism: Ephemera is Kagan's favorite daughter.
* RedheadInGreen: One of the dresses Rayne can wear is jade colored with an Asian theme.
%%* SheFu: The female Dhampyrs and Kestrels.
* ShoutOut: The rail-grinding is clearly inspired by Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog.
* StandardFPSGuns: In ''[=BloodRayne=] 2'', the [[BloodyMurder blood guns]] mimic the effect of several weapons:
** Blood Shot = [[GunsAkimbo Pistols]]
** Blood Stream = Machine guns
** Blood Spray = Shotgun
** Blood Flame = [[KillItWithFire Flamethrower]]
** Blood Hammer = Rocket launcher
** Blood Bomb = Time bomb (blows up enemies after a short period)
* {{Stripperific}}: Rayne's outfits in the second game. Her default outfit speaks for itself, of course, but she has quite a few alternates.
** LittleBlackDress: Her evening gown from the first mission, a SexyBacklessOutfit complete with AbsoluteCleavage.
** RedheadInGreen: The same gown, colored green.
** DragonLady: Above, with a dragon pattern.
** {{Cow|boy}}girl: Her cowgirl outfit, complete with chaps and oversize Bowie knives for her blades.
** JapaneseSchoolUniform: Complete with too-small underwear under her skirt and katanas for blades.
** EvilCostumeSwitch: Rayne's "{{dark|IsNotEvil}}" outfit, with black cargo pants, ash-white hair, tribal tattoos, and a wallet chain which reaches from her hip almost to her shoe.
** TwentyFourHourArmor: Rayne's armor outfit. It's a full plate armor complete with halberds instead of blades. It's also the only one of her outfits which fully hides her bust, as it doesn't conform to the "boobplate" standard.
* TrashcanBonfire: In the Meatpacking District chapter, Rayne is in an area with multiple barrels that each have a fire burning in them.
* TykeBomb: Essentially the result of Kagan's policy of raping women to sire dhampyrs, them slaughtering the child's entire family to leave them with no one else to turn to and raising them into an obedient and loyal army. Trumain got to Rayne before Kagan could do the same with her, though not in time to save her family.
* UnintentionallyUnwinnable: There's a glitch in ''[=BloodRayne=] 2'' if you don't use your harpoon to open the path before killing some {{mooks}}.
* UpdatedRerelease: ''[=BloodRayne=] 2'' and its prequel received a ''Terminal Cut'' re-release in 2020 on GOG.com and Steam, which features improved rendering and 4K resolutions, upscaled [=FMVs=], higher resolution uncompressed textures, and native [=XInput=] controller support.
* VaporWear: Ferril is mostly [[FullFrontalAssault nude]], if you took [[MarkOfTheBeast her markings]] away from her.
%%* VoiceWithAnInternetConnection: Specifically in ''[=BloodRayne=] 2''.
* WellDoneSonGuy: Xerx. He's the only one of Kagan's children that we see who is ''actually'' loyal to him, having spent years [[spoiler:putting him back together after Trumain blew him up]]. Despite his loyalty and desire for Kagan's approval, however, the game makes it clear that Xerx is looked on with disdain by ''everyone'' in the family.
%%* WorthyOpponent: Ephemera seems to consider Rayne this after fighting her for the first time. She remarks that Rayne is "more... interesting" than she expected, and is eager to "meet" (read: fight) her again.
* [[YouKilledMyFather You Killed My Mother and My Family]]: Why Rayne hates Kagan so much and what motivates her to kill him and the rest of ''his'' family.
