Dev Working Hard to Get ‘Bloodborne’ Ready for Early 2015 Release
From Software’s upcoming dark fantasy game Bloodborne, which was officially revealed at E3 last month, is a spiritual successor to Demon’s Souls, the similarly themed fantasy RPG that kicked off the franchise we now know as Dark Souls. At a recent PlayStation event in London, producer Jun Yoshino told Digital Spy “We’re really working flat out to get this game out for early 2015.” That’s pretty impressive turnaround for a game that was only revealed a month ago.
It’s been confirmed that Bloodborne will make an appearance at Gamescom, where they hope to have a playable demo of the game on the show floor.
“We’re going to be there at all upcoming major game shows like gamescom, where we’ll have our first hands-on demo on pods on the showfloor. There we can gauge first hand the reaction to the game.” Yoshino continued.
Gamescom runs from August 13-17 in Cologne, Germany.
Bloodborne is scheduled to arrive in early 2015 exclusively on the PS4.
