Plenty of other PlayStation exclusives seem to be making their way to PC as of late, so naturally fans' minds have gravitated towards Bloodborne as another potential option for a port.īloodborne 2 is reportedly in development. Even then, despite fans having to wait just a bit longer, there's still no downside to more players getting access to a highly anticipated and greatly praised game.įor now, Bloodborne coming to PC remains a rumor, but it'd be awesome to see the well-respected Soulsborne game make its way to PC. Many PC players who aren't as desperate to play the sequel would likely wait to see if Bloodborne 2 would theoretically come to PC after the PS5 exclusivity deal is up. Sony has proven that it's willing to let the timed-exclusivity lapse over time, at least with the few examples seen thus far. ![]() There is the chance that PC players, knowing how long it theoretically took for Bloodborne to come to PC, would be willing to wait for Bloodborne 2 on PC. That being said, it's also possible there is a downside as well, albeit a very minimal one. In a way, it's a very intelligent, inadvertent marketing tactic that can show beneficial for console sales. PC fans of Bloodborne may be more inclined to get a PS5 if fans knew they couldn't wait to play the game's highly requested sequel. More than likely the game's sequel would retain Sony's exclusivity, which in this case would be kind of a double-edged sword.

Fans of Bloodborne have a similar love for the game, so adding the game to a completely new platform that's shown a particular love for other "Soulsborne" games should be excited to have the series get some more exposure. Tons of fans have shown up for the beta flights/testing as well as the full releases for Master Chief Collection. A lot of iconic Halo games will be hitting the PC platform for the first time ever, years after their initial release dates on Xbox and Xbox 360. Not to mention things like modders and speedrunners, content creators, and other key aspects of the PC platform who champion games like these on Twitch and YouTube.Ī recent example of this success would be to look at how Halo: The Master Chief Collection is succeeding on PC at the moment. Bringing Bloodborne to PC could only be beneficial for the game's fanbase, as it allows a much wider reach for the audience. But even more importantly, there is the potential to expand the fanbase out beyond just PlayStation users. Sales-wise, a larger audience typically means greater success especially if the game is largely successful or praised. 1 day ago &0183 &32 27 Th3solution 3 hours ago I actually wonder how well a Bloodborne PC port would sell. And Bloodborne would probably sell millions right now with the hype of Elden Ring.Usually the main benefit of porting a formerly exclusive game is that it provides greater accessibility for a title and/or franchise to a wider audience. It's a popular way of reintroducing the game to a new generation of consoles and a new audience, which hopefully breathes new life into it with new sales figures. Why not give them the task of remastering it? We see remasters getting announced every fucking day. If Sony won't do the remaster in house with, say, Bluepoint, there are tons of studios out there that specializes in remastering games. So why the fuck are Sony not doing it? Do they not care about the IP? Are they waiting for another generation to go by so that they can remake it ala Demon's Souls? Is From Software holding the source code hostage and refuses to give it away? Or did some drunk motherfucker at Sony HQ flush the source code down the toilet on the Christmas party last year? Out of all the first party games that Sony is giving the remaster treatment, Bloodborne is the one game that would really benefit from it. A remaster for Bloodborne on PS5/PC is probably one of the top requested remasters right now.
