It seems like the age of the big third party exclusive is as dead as the dinosaur. Shock, anger and despair rocked through the fanboy communities in the last generation as some iconic PlayStation franchises like Grand Theft Auto and Final Fantasy migrated to the Xbox 360, and, for the more protective elements of the PS2 fanbase, it was a dark time, watching one exclusive after another make the jump to the new kid on the block. By the time we got to the end of the last console generation, the conventional wisdom was “Third party exclusives no longer exist; only first party exclusives can really define a console’s library.”
"Sony is missing out on a hugely profitable opportunity by ignoring fan demands for a Bloodborne remaster and PC port," says Ahmed from eXputer.
Bloodborne came out on the PS4. It is owned by From Software. What missed opportunity? I am sure the people at From Software know what they are doing. Especially since they are hiring devs instead of laying them off.
Maybe do an article about that instead of writing a hit piece on them acting like they don't know how to run their business.
It will be a launch title on PS6 just like the remake of Demon's Souls for PS5 launch
FromSoft boss Hidetaka Miyazaki has discussed the possibility of a Bloodborne remake, and the benefits of waiting for new hardware on which to revisit the beloved PlayStation 4 classic.
Yo, I wish we'd do sequels more. Like, don't get me wrong I'd play this, but it's disheartening to here Remake this and Remaster that, when I'd love to see more of the universe with new surprises and experiences.
If they do a bloodborne remake, I want Miyazaki to take the helm on the project. Bluepoint does great work but they ruined the feel of the original demons souls particularly with their music remakes. Not everything needs a choir.
Well that pretty much confirms the PS6 rumor. Probably launch showcase title like Demon's Souls

I played for dozens of hours before discovering lock-on, and I was better without it.
Love Bloodborne, was thinking the other day I need to go back and replay the entire game again.
Out of the pure soul borne games I like Bloodborne the best. I don’t consider Seriko style of play soulsborne as much, and have yet to play Elden Ring.
Bloodborne looks so bad that I had to quit after maybe an hour of play. It’s like sandpaper on my eyes. I’d try again if it had a remake like Demon’s Souls.
Bloodborne was the souls game I actually wanted to play and beat lol. I always used to hate the slower pace hide behind a shield gameplay in the dark souls games. This was also the game that made me want to try harder games and difficulties.
I didn't think I was ever going to agree with a headline like that ... but, after watching the pre-TGS show and TGS itself, I'd have to wholeheartedly agree.
Hasn't this always been the deal with the PS consoles??
You damn right it is!
Edit: warning! the disagrees are approaching in full force!
Glad to hear it. I am really impressed by the support ps4 is getting.
Job well done Sony.
Last gen the Japanese developers placed all their bets on the Xbox360 & minus a few exceptions it wasn't a very wise decision on their part. The Japanese development situation was falling apart just like what Keiji Inafune was referring too long ago. It became stagnant, long development cycles, dated, & falling further behind western developers.
Slowly the Japanese developers are coming back to what they were in their hay days. The power & ease of development of the PS4 has given the Japanese developers that push they needed to find their form. As the life cycle of the PS4 grows so will the Japanese developers confidence to deliver unique gaming experiences that we are so accustomed too in the past.
