Welcome again, Bloodborne dreamers. As ever, the nightmare continues, and this time it’s The Recreation Awards-flavored.
You already know that demonic statue within the desert that Geoff Keighley is teasing? I believe I by chance created this newest conspiracy, and I’m sorry. In my latest iteration of copium and hopium, I crammed within the blanks to a Twitter/X reply with some well-known Bloodborne 2 fan artwork, and my notifications haven’t been the identical since.
For those who’re new to the Bloodborne fandom, welcome. We do that on a regular basis. Ever for the reason that first sport launched for the PS4 (and stayed there) again in 2015, followers have been praying to the Previous Ones for a sequel, or perhaps a re-release or remaster. And we’ve not given up.
Many consider that it’s From Software program’s greatest work, each from a gameplay perspective and worldbuilding/lore. Its distinctive fight featured off-hand weapons like weapons used to parry foes, and reworking weapons that supplied completely different assault kinds have had many bloodthirsty for extra ever since.
Every time there’s a gaming business occasion, like a PlayStation State of Play or some other sort of reside stream the place video games are revealed, we mercilessly and unreasonably hope and consider that Bloodborne might be again. However the problem with this newest cope is that I suppose some folks noticed my biography on Twitter/X and thought there was some credence to the rumor.
I remorse to inform you all that I do know nothing about potential Bloodborne information. I used to be simply being a hopium Hunter as soon as once more. Some folks understood, however others have been in my replies taking it as some kind of hope or perhaps a report that that is really occurring. I’m sorry, avid gamers, but it surely’s not.
Or perhaps it’s? I haven’t heard something, and neither has seemingly anybody else, however when TGA’s account posted that “redacted”-style tease, naturally I needed to make it about Bloodborne, as a result of we’re all hoping for From Software program’s return to the IP to at some point come to fruition.
Lots of the folks interacting with the publish (over 143,000 views since Friday) are hopefully similar to me and alongside for the joke or experience, but when anybody felt deceived or false hope about it, then welcome to the land of delusion that all of us reside in.
The unhappy actuality is that Bloodborne 2 or perhaps a Bloodborne PC port or remaster is unlikely. Final 12 months, From Software program CEO Hidetaka Miyazaki remarked that he knew a few of his devs need the port to occur, however in the long run, the sport and IP are each owned by Sony. For no matter purpose (probably cash or authorized causes), the PlayStation firm hasn’t pulled the set off on this challenge, which has turn into a ardour for modders by way of emulation on PC as a substitute.
However anyway, I’ve had fun studying the replies on Twitter/X this weekend. There are such a lot of folks similar to me who know {that a} sequel or port just isn’t occurring, however we proceed to cling to the delusional dream that the Elden Ring and Armored Core studio will roll again the clock to 2015 yet one more time.
I refuse to surrender hope. I’ll proceed to yearn for returning to Yharnam at some point. It’s simply in all probability not occurring any time quickly, and undoubtedly not this Thursday on Geoff Keighley’s yearly awards present and commercial exposition.
