Hidetaka Miyazaki, the brain behind FromSoftware, expressed his contentment with the widespread desire for a Bloodborne remake. In an interview with Eurogamer, Miyazaki recognized the clamor for a remake of the popular 2015 action-RPG exclusive to the PlayStation 4. While he admitted to the demand for a revamp of Bloodborne, he fell short of providing any concrete confirmation regarding the possibility of a remake.
Rumors, speculations, and excitement over a potential Bloodborne remake or remaster have been circulating for quite some time now. However, despite the persistent buzz in the gaming community, neither FromSoftware nor Bandai Namco have given any solid indication of the game’s revival. Nonetheless, Miyazaki and his team expressed their delight in knowing that Bloodborne has left a lasting impact on its players.
When reflecting on the progression from the original PS3 Demon’s Souls to the PS5 remake in 2020, Miyazaki hinted that a hypothetical Bloodborne remake could benefit from the enhanced capabilities of future consoles like the inevitable PS6. Miyazaki emphasized that new hardware plays a significant role in enhancing the value of remakes by enabling developers to incorporate features and visual effects that were previously unattainable. However, he also stressed that while new hardware has its advantages, it is not the sole determining factor in the quality of a game.
Importance of Accessibility in Gaming
Miyazaki further elaborated on the significance of modern hardware in making games accessible to a wider audience. He emphasized that the evolution of hardware not only enhances the gaming experience for existing players but also allows more people to appreciate classic titles on new platforms. From Miyazaki’s perspective as a gamer himself, he believes that making games more accessible is a driving force behind bringing older titles to contemporary platforms.
The Future of Bloodborne and FromSoftware
Despite the uncertainty surrounding the fate of a Bloodborne remake or remaster, FromSoftware remains occupied with the upcoming release of Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. As fans eagerly anticipate any news regarding a Bloodborne remake, the developers at FromSoftware continue to focus on delivering new content and experiences to their loyal player base.
