Given this background, it’s not surprising that many fans consider Bluepoint to be the ideal studio to undertake a Bloodborne remaster. The developer’s expertise in enhancing visuals and refining gameplay mechanics positions them as a natural choice for the project. However, there are conflicting opinions within the Bloodborne community.

There is a compelling case to be made for a Bloodborne remaster. While the game’s art design is unquestionably impressive, it is limited by the capabilities of the PS4 hardware.

A remaster could enhance the visuals significantly, providing players with the opportunity to explore Yharnam in all its disturbing magnificence. Additionally, a Bloodborne remaster could introduce the game to a whole new audience of players who may have missed out on the original release.

However, some are worried that Bluepoint might deviate too much from the original game in their pursuit of better graphics.

I respect bluepoint but they don’t do the souls games justice, pls just port bloodborne. ****** souls ps5 is still gr8 but their creative choices don’t do it for me

Certain fans cite the ******’s Souls remake as an example, arguing that it compromised some of the original game’s atmosphere in its drive for visual perfection. There is a concern that a similar approach could strip Bloodborne of its distinctive visual identity.

Ultimately, the decision to remaster Bloodborne ***** with PlayStation. Although Bluepoint’s expertise is undeniable, there are questions about maintaining the game’s original artistic direction.

Can they preserve the essence of Bloodborne while delivering a significant visual enhancement? Only time will tell whether PlayStation chooses to give Bloodborne the remaster it deserves and, if they do, who they select for the project.

One thing is for sure: the demand from the community is clear. As more voices join the call, perhaps Sony will take notice and finally give Yharnam the upgrade it warrants.
