For years now, Bloodborne followers have needed the common PS4-exclusive RPG ported to PC, hopefully with efficiency enhancements and graphical choices. And whereas FromSoftware’s president Hidetaka Miyazaki didn’t affirm that such a port is going on, he did say he’s not against it and instructed that many individuals on the studio desire a PC port to occur.
Launched almost a decade in the past in 2017 solely for PlayStation 4, Bloodborne is one in every of FromSoftware’s (Darkish Souls, Elden Ring) hottest and beloved video games. Like a lot of its different video games, Bloodborne is a tough-as-nails motion RPG that includes intense boss battles and plenty of secrets and techniques. Nonetheless, in contrast to a lot of FromSoftware’s RPGs, Bloodborne has by no means been ported to different platforms. It stays caught on PS4. That’s led to folks asking again and again for the Sony-owned Bloodborne to get a PC port. And it appears like, whereas Miyazaki doesn’t have something to announce, he appears into the thought of this fan-favorite RPG lastly being playable on one thing apart from a PS4.
In an interview with Miyazaki, PC Gamer requested the president if he would personally prefer to see Bloodborne ported to PC at some point.
“I do know for a truth these guys desire a Bloodborne PC port,” mentioned Miyazaki in reference to FromSoftware workers sitting with him through the interview. Nonetheless, he rapidly added that if he says he desires a port he’ll “get in hassle” however that he’s not “opposed” to a PC model.
“Clearly, as one of many creators of Bloodborne, my private, pure trustworthy opinion is I’d love extra gamers to have the ability to get pleasure from it,” mentioned Miyazaki. “Particularly as a recreation that’s now coming of age, a kind of video games of the previous that will get misplaced on older {hardware}—I believe any recreation like that, it’d be good to have a possibility for extra gamers to have the ability to expertise that and relive this relic of the previous. So so far as I’m involved, that’s undoubtedly not one thing I’d be against.”
After all, whereas it’s good to listen to that the president of FromSoftware desires a Bloodborne PC port, it doesn’t imply one is going on. Keep in mind, FromSoftware doesn’t personal the Bloodborne IP, Sony does. And till Sony decides to fund a port, remaster, or remake, all FromSoftware can do is vaguely go “Yeah, we wish one, too!” and that’s it.
Hopefully, as we close to the sport’s tenth anniversary subsequent 12 months, Sony will notice that they’ve a literal goldmine on their arms and all the corporate has to do is put up a teaser for Bloodborne on Steam and it will likely be flooded with pre-orders earlier than it even shares a trailer. On the very least, we all know everybody at FromSoftware is down for a port. Now we wait to see what Sony desires…
