Bloodborne Theory Suggests Miyazaki Is Too Busy For Remaster

Summary

If you’ve followed the gaming space for the last few years, you’ll know that cries for aBloodborneremaster are louder than ever. Every newmention of the game from Sony, and therehas been a lot, builds fan excitement, only for it to be followed by a deafening silence. Expectations, though, have never been higher.

Now, former president of SIE Worldwide Studios for PlayStation Shuhei Yoshida has weighed in on why we’ve not seen a remaster yet, saying he thinks the game’s creator, Hidetaka Miyazaki, is “so busy” it’s not been possible.

Miyazaki “Really, Really Loved Bloodborne And The World He Created”

Speaking to Greg Miller on theKinda Funny Gamescastfor the first time since retiring from PlayStation, Shuhei Yoshida confirmed that despite calls for many PlayStation reboots, “Bloodborne has always been the most asked thing.”

He shared his own “personal theory” as to why the game hasn’t seen a remake, remaster, or even an update yet.

First confirming that because he “left first-party so has no idea what is actually going on”, he says, “Miyazaki-san really, really loved Bloodborne and what he created. I think he is interested, but he’s so successful, and he’s so busy, he cannot do it himself, but he doesn’t want anyone else to touch it. The PlayStation team respects his wish.”

Yoshida is quick to reaffirm that this is just a “guess and theory” and that he’s “not revealing any secret information, to be clear.”

I think he is interested, but he’s so successful, and he’s so busy, he cannot do it himself, but he doesn’t want anyone else to touch it.

So, while we’re no further forward to actually receiving the remake or remaster that we’re all so desperate for, or even any information on it, it’s an interesting insight as to why the ballmay​​​​​​not yet be rolling.
