The recent release of Sony's trailer 'Play Has No Limit' has reignited fans' theories about a potential Bloodborne remaster or PC port. Although Bloodborne was not included in the ‘Most Anticipated Game’ category of 2024, speculation surrounding the beloved title has reached new heights.

Rumours suggest that Bloodborne may be announced during the PlayStation event scheduled for December 3, 2024. A specific scene from Sony's trailer appears to reference the date through a cryptic timeline: ‘03, 12, 20:24’. Adding to the excitement, a maintenance notice from Bloodborne’s developers has announced that the game’s servers will be shut down for maintenance on December 3, 2024, from 23:00 to 03:00 EST — a move that aligns closely with fan predictions.

Fans are also speculating about Sony's potential acquisition of Kadokawa, the parent company of Bloodborne’s developer, FromSoftware. Should Sony secure the Bloodborne IP and FromSoftware, it would mark a significant reunion for the franchise.

However, Sony has neither confirmed nor denied any of these rumours, fuelling further anticipation as the PlayStation event approaches. Social media platforms such as Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), and Discord have become hubs of activity, with fans sharing theories, news, and fan art inspired by Bloodborne.

As the gaming community eagerly awaits December 3, all eyes are on Sony to see if the much-loved title will make its triumphant return.
