Sony just unveiled a brand new Astro Bot game, a continuation of one of PlayStation’s secret best franchises, and it’s got just about every cameo you can imagine - exceptFromSoftware’s Bloodborne.
Yes, it’s got Aloy, Kratos, Nathan Drake, the monkey from Ape Escape, and so, so many more PlayStation cameos in the new game. Sadly, if you thoughtSonywould be paying homage to one of the most beloved PlayStation games of all time in its new game, you’d be unfortunately mistaken.
What makes this entire thing even funnier is that, in the run-up to yesterday’sPlayStation State of Playshowcase, speculation was rife that Bloodborne would somehow turn up during the showcase. Honestly, this is on par with Hollow Knight: Silksong clownery at this point, but damn if the Bloodborne fans out there don’t get needlessly excited with every new showcase.
Astro Bot is out later this year on September 6, exclusively for PS5, without a Bloodborne cameo for now.
