PlayStation insider shuts down Bloodborne speculation announcement

PlayStation insider shuts down Bloodborne speculation announcement

Even after the immense popularity of Elden Ring, especially with the success of its Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, many still regard Bloodborne as FromSoftware's magnum opus. Bloodborne remains one of the most highly anticipated titles among the gaming community, with dedicated fans persistently calling for a remaster or PC port of this beloved Soulslike classic.

Despite FromSoftware being the developer of Bloodborne, Sony owns the IP, which has kept the game exclusive to PlayStation for nearly a decade. Even with the release of the PS5, there have been no significant updates for the game. It's no surprise that anything remotely hinting at a Bloodborne-related announcement instantly sparks speculation within FromSoftware's passionate community.

Recently, gamers discovered scheduled maintenance for Bloodborne. During this period, the game's Online Mode will be unavailable from December 3 at 11 PM to December 4 at 3 AM EST. However, Bloodborne will remain playable offline during the maintenance window.

This announcement instantly fueled rumors among FromSoftware enthusiasts. The timing of the Online Mode maintenance—December 3—coincides with a date recently teased in a PlayStation trailer, leading to widespread speculation that Bloodborne might finally receive a new announcement after nearly a decade without significant updates. One of the most popular theories is that Bloodborne could be getting a remastered version, similar to Sony's Demon's Souls remake, as part of efforts to promote the PS5.

 

Speculation around December 3 announcement may be false

 


Shortly after the discovery of the server maintenance update and as Bloodborne fans began their "early" celebrations, reliable industry insider Jeff Grubb delivered some disappointing news. In a tweet addressing the remaster rumors, Grubb stated, "I promise you this is nothing," effectively shutting down the excitement. It seems this is yet another year where Bloodborne enthusiasts are left with nothing but speculation and dashed hopes for new content.

While this is just the word of one insider, others in the industry have suggested that PlayStation might have announcements planned for next month. However, it’s best to keep expectations in check.
