FromSoftwareboss Hidetaka Miyazaki is “happy” so many people want a Bloodborne remake, but isn’t ready to confirm one just yet.
“Put simply, it makes me very happy to see it’s a title with a lot of specific memories, both for me and the staff who worked on it,” he said. “And when we see those passionate voices in the community, of course it makes us feel thrilled, it makes us feel very fortunate to have that and to have those memories.”
“I think having new hardware is definitely a part of what gives these remakes value,” he said. “Things you weren’t able to achieve on previous generations of hardware, ways you weren’t able to render specific expressions - [new hardware] sometimes makes it possible.”
Still, Miyazaki added that new hardware isn’t “the be all and end all.”
“I think purely from a user perspective, modern hardware also allows more players to appreciate all the games. And so, it ends up being a simple reason, but as a fellow player, I think that accessibility is important. I think that can be the driving force between bringing an old game to a new platform.”
