Report: A Bloodborne remake is unlikely at present

Over on Bloomberg, Jason Schreier has stated that Bluepoint did certainly pitch to remake Bloodborne in 2025 and “the studio was informed that the numbers made sense, however FromSoftware didn’t need it to occur, in keeping with individuals conversant in the method.”

In interview final 12 months, former PlayStation Boss Shuhei Yoshida seemingly backed this up, saying FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki did need extra from the Bloodborne world, maybe together with a remake, however he’s far too busy and  “doesn’t need anybody else to the touch it.”

Sony don’t want FromSoftware’s permission, they personal Bloodborne, however Sony would slightly preserve FromSoftware pleased slightly than go forward with any remake. FromSoftware had an enormous hit with Elden Ring, and they’re nonetheless open to exclusives as their subsequent sport, The Duskbloods, is just on Swap 2, so Sony retaining them onside with a view to a future unique is sensible.

Bloodborne continues to be promoting nicely, with almost 2 million models bought between February 2022 and November 2025, 10 years after it launched.

That was cancelled in January 2025 together with the stay service sport that Sony Bend had been engaged on. Particulars of the Bend sport have by no means been launched.

Proper now, you possibly can play two of Sony stay service video games that managed to flee the axe, Marathon and Horizon Hunters Gathering.  Additionally they have Fairgame$ in improvement, an extraction shooter that seems like it could compete with Marathon for gamers.
