Hidetaka Miyazaki “Not really considering” Elden Ring 2 But It’s Another Game We Want Him on Before PS6

The debut of Elden Ring‘s Lands Between back in 2022 truly revolutionized the gaming industry. The title was packed with unaided exploration and ********* boss battles. FromSoftware’s creation went on to even grab the Game of the Year Award.

Recently, the Soulslike game made waves once again when its Shadow of the Erdtree expansion received a nomination for the Game of the Year award. With the IP’s success, you’d think a sequel is right on the horizon.

However, FromSoftware’s Hidetaka Miyazaki has confirmed that Elden Ring 2 isn’t currently in the works. That’s quite disappointing, but the studio now has the chance to give another highly requested title.

, Hidetaka Miyazaki opened up about the success of the Elden Ring IP and its future. After the success of Shadow of the Erdtree, the fandom has been left wondering if we’ll ever see a sequel or another DLC.

However, Miyazaki instantly crushed hopes for Elden Ring 2. According to him, the studio isn’t considering developing another entry in the franchise.

We’re not really considering developments such as an Elden Ring 2.

Thankfully, Miyazaki stated that the game could return through other projects in the future. He didn’t confirm FromSoftware’s upcoming games but revealed that the studio is working on several projects.

An Elden Ring sequel is an exciting prospect, but there’s one thing gamers want even more: Bloodborne 2. Debuting in 2015 as a PS4 exclusive, Bloodborne is considered to be one of the greatest games developed by FromSoftware and Miyazaki.

The title’s gothic horror elements and creatures were quite a departure from the medieval settings gamers were used to seeing in the Dark Souls series, drawing intrigue and resonating well.

For the past nine years, fans have been begging for a remaster or a sequel. Since Sony owns the rights to IP, FromSoftware couldn’t really do anything. However, with the rumors floating around about a Sony takeover of the developer, there’s a chance we could see Bloodborne 2 in the future.

Sony’s Plans to Acquire Elden Ring Developer Might Not Materialize

A few weeks ago, rumors started floating around that Sony was looking to purchase Kadokawa, the parent company for the Elden Ring creator. Sony already has a 2% stake in Kadokawa and a 14% in FromSoftware.

Since the rumors started, players have been speculating about the impact of this takeover on the industry, as Kadokawa owns other major studios such as Pike Chunsoft and RPG Studios as well.

More recent reports stated that Kadokawa would only go ahead with the deal if Sony went for a complete buyout, including all the anime and gaming properties. However, this might prove to be too troublesome for the PlayStation maker.

According to

, the total cost of purchasing Kadokawa’s properties would end up being more than 640 billion yen ($4.3 billion). That price is way too high for Sony’s liking as it has already made quite a few investments in recent years, such as a buyout of Bungie.

There’s also the chance that if Sony attempts to buy Kadokawa, it could lead to an outright bidding war, which could ****** up the prices even further. Only time will tell us how this acquisition plays out, as even industry experts are busy speculating on the impact Sony’s takeover of Kadokawa would have on anime, television, and gaming.

With that said, what would you prefer from software crafting, Elden Ring 2 or Bloodborne 2? Let us know in the comments below.
