Bloodborne Remake Rumors Revive After PlayStation 30th Anniversary Trailer DropsThe PlayStation 30th-anniversary video reignited speculation about a potential Bloodborne remake or sequel. Let's delve into the latest buzz surrounding the game and the recent PS5 update.

PlayStation's 30th Anniversary Celebration: A Bloodborne Finale?

Bloodborne's Appearance in the Anniversary Trailer

The anniversary trailer featured the beloved PS4 exclusive, Bloodborne, with the caption "It's about persistence." While other PlayStation classics also appeared, the inclusion of Bloodborne, especially its placement at the end of the trailer, sparked fervent fan speculation about a potential remaster or even a long-awaited sequel.

Set to a unique rendition of The Cranberries' "Dreams," the trailer showcased iconic titles such as Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, and Helldivers 2, each with a thematic caption. However, Bloodborne's inclusion and the "persistence" tagline ignited a wave of excitement and conjecture among fans.

This isn't the first time such speculation has emerged; a previous Instagram post by PlayStation Italia featuring iconic Bloodborne locations also generated significant fan excitement.

However, the trailer's ending might simply be a nod to Bloodborne's notoriously challenging gameplay, highlighting the persistence required to conquer its demanding world, rather than a direct hint at new content.

PS5 Update: UI Customization and Nostalgia

Bloodborne Remake Rumors Revive After PlayStation 30th Anniversary Trailer DropsSony's 30th-anniversary celebrations also included a limited-time PS5 update. This update features a nostalgic PS1 boot-up sequence and customizable themes inspired by past PlayStation consoles. Users can select themes representing consoles from the PS1 to PS4, allowing players to recapture the feel of their favorite PlayStation eras.

This update lets PS5 owners personalize their home screen's appearance and sound effects, drawing inspiration from previous consoles. Accessing this feature is straightforward: navigate to PS5 Settings, select "PlayStation 30th Anniversary," then choose "Appearance and Sound" to customize the background and sounds.

While fans are generally thrilled with this update, particularly the return of the PS4 UI, the limited-time nature of the feature has caused some disappointment. Some players have expressed a willingness to pay for a permanent version, while others see it as a possible test for future, more extensive UI customization options on the PS5.

Sony's Rumored Handheld Console

Bloodborne Remake Rumors Revive After PlayStation 30th Anniversary Trailer DropsThe speculation doesn't end there. Digital Foundry recently corroborated Bloomberg's reports about a potential Sony handheld console for PS5 games. While still in early development, Sony's foray into the handheld market, currently dominated by Nintendo Switch, aims to capitalize on the growing popularity of mobile gaming.

Digital Foundry's John Linneman confirmed hearing about the project months prior, suggesting that the recent reports simply confirmed pre-existing information. The panel also discussed the logical move for both Microsoft and Sony to enter the handheld space, given the prevalence of mobile gaming.

Even with the corroboration, the release of both Sony and Microsoft's handheld devices could still be years away, requiring the creation of affordable yet visually impressive consoles to compete effectively with Nintendo. Meanwhile, Nintendo, with its upcoming Switch successor, appears to be leading the pack in the portable gaming arena.
