FULL STORY
======================================================================

FromSoftware president and Bloodborne s director, Hidetaka Miyazaki, has 
acknowledged the demand for the popular 2015 action-role-playing game to be 
remade, but hasnt confirmed if one is ever going to happen. 

Speaking in a new interview with Eurogamer , Miyazaki stated that hes very 
happy so many fans are asking for a remake to happen, and said that those 
passionate voices in the community make the team behind the game feel 
thrilled. Noting that the team has a lot of specific memories of Bloodborne , 
he added: It makes us feel very fortunate to have that and to have those 
memories. 

Earlier in the interview, he acknowledged the benefits of remakes, and said 
that new hardware can sometimes make things possible that just couldnt be 
done in the original releases of games, such as ways to render specific 
expressions. 

He also pointed out that bringing games to modern hardware simply allows more 
players to experience them. I think that accessibility is important. I think 
that can be the driving force between bringing an old game to a new platform, 
he said. 

However, speaking to IGN about the topic, Miyazaki stated that it's not in my 
place to talk about Bloodborne specifically since FromSoftware doesnt own the 
IP, Sony does. He reiterated that he thinks it was a great project, but 
ultimately, we're not at liberty to speak to it." 

So, fans have no official hints as to whether they can ever expect Bloodborne 
to make a return on current-generation hardware. Previously, it was released 
as a PlayStation 4 exclusive, and so much of the fan demand has centered 
around bringing the title to PlayStation 5 and PC. 

For now, players will just have to focus their attention on Shadow of the 
Erdtree - the upcoming expansion for FromSoftwares open-world RPG Elden Ring 
.. The expansion received its first trailer yesterday (February 21), which 
gave fans their first look at the games new location and enemies, as well as 
the confirmation of that all-important release date. Shadow of the Erdtree is 
set to launch on June 21.
