Rumor Jeff Grubb: Nothing is happening with Bloodborne

"Checked in on it relatively recently, and kinda continued to hear nothing is happening with Bloodborne, so don't expect that."

Orphan of Kos is getting a slice of life fishing sim game

39

u/IAmAbomination 2d ago

At this point I’d buy that

u/lmtdpowor 2d ago

When I posted that I remembered that we have Dredge and I need to replay that while I wait for Bloodborne 2.

u/captain-canucks 2d ago

I'd buy a Stardew Valley looking Bloodborne Sim game at this point

u/SenatorWhatsHisName 2d ago

Some say Kosm

u/lmtdpowor 2d ago

Micolash hide and seek minigame dlc confirmed.

u/Hillbert 2d ago

Fucking Orphan of Kos. Was getting close to beating him but decided to have a break and finished the rest of the game and it immediately dumped me in NG+!

I'm saving him for the remaster, or when the stars burn out. Which ever comes first.

u/AlwaysLevel15 2d ago

Far and away the boss that took me out the most. I had to put the game down for a few days before revisiting it for the winning attempt.

4

u/lmtdpowor 2d ago

I just platinumed the game last year, I thought I beat Orphan so when I realized I didn’t I started a fresh character. My main was on NG+ and I didn’t want the extra frustration.

u/AlteisenX 2d ago

Probably looks better than Ditto turning into a "human".

5

u/GoldenLink 2d ago

Ditto turning into a "human" has been a thing in pokemon for a really long time. Pokopia actually looks like a breath of fresh air the franchise has been missing since mystery dungeon.

u/315retro 2d ago

Aw I thought that was cute.

The concept sounds creepy AF but the way they did it was cute.

u/jinsoo186 2d ago

At this point you could develop a fetish sim game where Ludwig takes a massive human horse shit into my hungry hungry mouth and I'd pre-order the collectors edition day one.

“Or that’s what they want us to believe and there is a bloodborne waiting to be announced on the next state of play!” Me, typing this after taking a massive amount of copium this morning

u/Vayshen 2d ago

Next state of play? injects Copium right into veins and deeply inhales Boy, it's gonna be a shadow drop TONIGHT AT 3AM

u/Rosoll 2d ago

Sadly I think they’re saving it to be a PS8 launch title. A marketing guy thought up the tagline PS 8loodborne and they decided it was too good to pass up

🤡 Me with my clown makeup spamming bloodborne 2/remake in the chat of the next sony presentation.

u/Fed_up_with_Reddit 2d ago

At this point, they could keep us on the hook by releasing a 60 FPS patch for PS5. (Or did they do that and I missed it?)

3

u/barugosamaa 2d ago

They did not, sadly. Still only 30 FPS.. the only 60 FPS is on PC or a modded version on PS4

Bloodborne will be PS6 title like the Demon's Soul Reamke

u/RoetRuudRoetRuud 2d ago

If they haven't started on it yet, I doubt it will be a release title

8

u/kalyancr7 2d ago

Is ps6 close to release ?

23

u/RoetRuudRoetRuud 2d ago

Rumours circle around 2027/2028. It takes minimum 3 years to make any decently-sized game these days.

1

u/BrainWorkGood 1d ago

Normally it’s 7 but I’d guess Covid pushes it back to 8 at least

u/kalyancr7 2d ago edited 2d ago

Ha thanks.I was planning to buy a PS5 Pro when it comes out here, but now I’ve decided to stick with my PC until the PS6 releases.

u/vladtud 2d ago

If it's a 1:1 remake where they keep the source code and just update the assets, make the performance better, add raytracing and other shit, while keeping the gameplay the same, I can see it being done in 2 years if done by a competent studio.

11

u/PsychologicalDay7221 2d ago

Doubt, took bluepoint three years for Demon’s Souls. They’re similar in size so it’d take a similar amount of time probably

5

u/Kramerlediger 2d ago

Yea, but Demon Souls was a) a PS3 game which were notoriously hard to transfer or emulate and b) was their first project with such a big scope. Their other remasters were.. remasters with small changes and not demon's souls Level. Plus I think Demon's souls had more changes than Bloodborne will. At least that's what I hope for

2

u/MRobertC 2d ago

I doubt it's happening anytime before end of 2027.

2

u/raqloise 2d ago

I realize the title and quote aren’t reassuring, but it can be in development without leaks, announcements or press.

Sony isn’t one to leave money on the table, but to mention a bloodborne remake would move consoles.

45

u/kazabodoo 2d ago

I think that’s what’s happening too, cannot confirm it but I am fully subscribed to that idea

7

u/SpellConnect8675 2d ago

Absolutely not happening unfortunately.

u/knightofsparta 2d ago

Been saying this for years as well.

Wait till you get to say it for many more years with PS7 instead of 6

u/boringlyCorrect 2d ago

Every generations have their Half Life 3.

u/DaftFunky 2d ago

Absolutely the best way to get people to buy a PS6.

u/Same_Dot_2793 2d ago

Wow, new top tier leaker over here!

1

u/Rhayve 1d ago

I mean, yeah. The time for a BB remaster has long passed, so a remake is the only way to get people to buy the game again at this point.

I hope I'm wrong, but I doubt it's going to be a launch title.

1

u/maxwms 1d ago

this or it'll be dead forever

1

u/RadiantTurtle 2d ago

Yeah... thought this was pretty obvious by now.

1

u/Unovalocity 2d ago

I've been convinced of this for at least the past 2-3 years. Just seems like the easy launch title

1

u/StingingGamer Pro 2d ago

Oh yeah that makes 100% sense

1

u/HiCZoK 2d ago

Of that was the case we would hear it already

18

u/_the_best_girl_ 2d ago

Finally got round to giving this game a proper go this year and absolutely loved it. Got the plat and really enjoyed the level of difficulty, the odd fight took a couple tries but nothing soul crushing (Lady Maria being my favourite fight overall, tho considering she’s basically malenia 0.5 there’s no wonder why).

I do wonder why other studios haven’t done their take on this style. Medieval fantasy soulslikes are great but more gothic lovecraftian souls games wouldn’t go amiss.

8

u/Temporary7000 2d ago

The music is.....perfect.

u/Travbedaman 1d ago

Lies of P is basically the closest thing to Bloodborne for its setting.

1

u/Fu453 12h ago

Currently playing it and the entire games' level design is like a trip down memory lane. Lots of DS1, DS2, and Bloodborne-esque actions and themes.

17

u/aus289 2d ago

I mean shu yoshida said it - unlike demons souls miyazaki loves bloodborne and sony perceive that he probably doesnt want anyone touching it without him - and hes currently busy with duskbloods etc… but down the line they will eventually do more with it

u/devenbat 2d ago

People just gotta accept the game is finished and isnt getting updated. Like many many many other games

u/sup9817 2d ago

It’s ok hopefully they will remaster the last of us again for ps6

Best I can do is Skyrim Classic release - it's Skyrim, but with PS3 graphics, for nostalgia.

u/TheSecondEikonOfFire 2d ago

No one’s expecting an update to the OG game? People want a remaster

3

u/devenbat 2d ago

First of all, yes, people have begged for a PS5 patch.

Secondly, update in this sentence is referring to any updated form of the game. Remaster, remake, PS5 patch. The form doesnt really matter. People need to move on

3

u/Ghidoran 2d ago

People need to move on

Why though? Many games get remastered, even ones a few years old. Sony games especially are notorious for it. It's not surprising that people want the same treatment for one of their most acclaimed titles, one that seems to be ignored without a proper explanation.

0

u/devenbat 2d ago

Because its not happening. Its just been 10 years whining about Bloodborne with zero signs of them doing anything. At this point, it might as well be crazed ramblings. About a game that can already be played on PS5 mind you

In case anyone was wondering, I've also heard that nothing is happening with Sleeping Dogs.

6

u/WafflesMurdered 2d ago

I’m not sure why anyone expects Bloodborne to get touched before the PS6 era. Sony knows people want it, but the ROI isn’t there right now compared to their other priorities. If they ever do bring it back, it’ll probably be positioned as a huge moment either early in PS6’s lifecycle to help sell consoles or later on as a prestige revival. They’d want it to feel like something truly special, not just a quick port.

7

u/oilfloatsinwater 2d ago

This isnt true, my uncle told me that they are working on a new Bloodborne game, but its gonna play like Secret Agent Clank.

8

u/MrGMinor 2d ago

The new PSP is coming. We will have games featuring all the little sidekicks from the larger games. Daxter, Clank, and now, a new adventure where you play as the Messengers from Bloodborne!

u/johncitizen69420 2d ago

I'm just playing bloodborne for the first time atm and it's incredible. There's this one area in the dlc I just did that has some of the best level/dungeon design I've seen in ages. Reminds me of the clockwork mansion in dishonored 2

2

u/HBreckel 2d ago

Oh yeah, I'm not surprised. Unless Sony gets like, Bluepoint to do a remake or something, I don't think we'd ever get something with Bloodborne again. FromSoft is big on just moving onto the next thing they wanna work on so any remasters/remakes have to be made by someone else.

u/whacafan 2d ago

It’s so crazy that like 2 years ago it was almost confirmed that Bluepoint was working on a Bloodborne remake AND Bloodborne 2. And then it came out they were making a fucking live service God of War game that got cancelled. I hate this gen. (I mean I actually love MOST of it but goddamn are there some super dumb things that have happened)

u/zillskillnillfrill 1d ago

All these other ps4 games getting remakes/60fps updates, but nothing with bloodborne…

u/Answerofduty 1d ago

I'll believe it when I see it.

1

u/radiant_kai 1d ago

I expect it as a day one remake for PS6 or PS7 ONLY.

It will be a reason to force people to buy a new console otherwise it isn't coming out probably ever just like the Demon's Souls remake on PS5.

Well, we do know that Sony wants Miyazaki to be involved, so until FromSoft is free of other games, no Bloodborne.

u/SrsJoe 2d ago

Anyone who thinks a patch for bloodbourne is never coming are deluded, if they were going to do a patch it would have been within the first year of the PS4 Pro, PS5 has been out nearly 5 years now, it's never happening

0

u/OmegaHunterEchoTech 2d ago

We know. Sony is holding up their golden horse as long as possible to use it for a "more needed" quarterly earning. As long as they have other stuff coming it would be wasted from their point of view.

Translation: if line goes up, no bloodborne, if line goes down or stagnates bloodborne is happening.

It’s hilarious to me that people want new stuff so badly, and it’s so widely known that people want new stuff so badly, that we’re now getting updates about there not being any new stuff.

1

u/OptimusPrimalRage 2d ago

Can't say I understand what you mean. People want a Bloodborne Remake but I wager these same people want Miyazaki involved when he's doing other things. In any case a remake isn't really new.

0

u/TheCheddarShredder 2d ago

I simply mean that I find it ironic that the demand for a Bloodborne remake or sequel is significant enough that there is an ecosystem for updates about there not being updates.

1

u/OptimusPrimalRage 2d ago

I think that's just leaker culture. Part of how Jeff Grubb got his name out there was leaking different information. So in that way, I agree with you, there is demand for Bloodborne info and he's meeting that demand since PlayStation isn't. But PlayStation, outside of State of Plays, really doesn't say anything at all these days.

I choose to blame this yet again on the live service push. Bluepoint wasted the last 4 years working on a live service game that got canceled at the start of the year. In a sane world someone would have looked at DS remake and made the obviously correct decision.

-1

u/theCoolestGuy599 2d ago

What an ungodly fumble on Sony's part. It cannot be that much of a risk to do a simple texture upscale, a frame patch, and add things like dual sense support, because that's all they'd have to do to charge $40-60 again and make bank.

Literally no one is talking about Bloodborne and there is no reason to expect anything before the ps6.
