FromSoftware Boss Comments on Fans Wanting a Bloodborne Remake

FromSoftware's Hidetaka Miyazaki has finally responded to fans' demands for a remake of Bloodborne, but there is a catch. As one of the highest-rated Soulsborne games of all time, Bloodborne enjoys a loyal fanbase, and players have been eagerly waiting to see more from the franchise for years.

While games like Elden Ring have elevated the Soulsborne genre to a new pedestal, Bloodborne's narrative, which was infused with Lovecraftian horror themes, is still considered the best by many. Over the years, fans have been requesting a PC port of Bloodborne, which despite several rumors, never ended up materializing. With the launch of the PlayStation 5, fans were hoping that they would at least get a remake if not a sequel, but that hasn't happened yet.

In an interview with Eurogamer, FromSoftware President Hidetaka Miyazaki expressed his gratitude towards the unwavering passion of the fanbase. Miyazaki states, «It is a title we hold very dear and just as much as our fans. It does make me very happy to see that there are still so many people passionate about it.” However, upon being asked about the possibility of a remake, he apologizes and refuses to make any comment.

Reflecting on the emotional connection to the game, he shares a heartfelt sentiment about the impact the game had on his team. Adding on to that, he once again appreciates the love Bloodborne has received from the community over the years.

Fans might not be too optimistic after Miyazaki's recent comments, as he also highlighted that the remake is only justified if there is a big enough jump in the hardware prowess between generations. „I think having new hardware is definitely a part of what gives these remakes value, things you weren't able to achieve on previous generations of hardware” he elaborates. While Miyazaki didn't specify it, he was possibly hinting toward Demon's Souls, which was remade for PlayStation 5, after being originally launched for the PlayStation 3 all the way back in 2009.
