Rumour: ‘Bloodborne’ Film Adaptation in the Works With Writer Darren Lemke
For those of you clamoring for a PlayStation 5 remake or sequel for Bloodborne, PlayStation Lifestyle reports that something bigger might be on the way. According to an insider, a Bloodborne film is in the works at PlayStation Productions and Sony Interactive Entertainment.
Reddit user DanielRPK has stated that the film’s script will be penned by Darren Lemke, whose previous credits include Goosebumps, Shazam!, and Gemini Man, to name a few. The user also said that Bloodborne will be produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura, who is behind the G.I. Joe and the Transformers series.
DanielRPK is a known leaker who has shown in the past regarding his superhero film leaks to be a reliable source.
DanielRPK also included the following summary for the film: “Bloodborne follows the player’s character, a Hunter, through the decrepit Gothic, Victorian-era-inspired city of Yharnam, whose inhabitants are afflicted with a blood-borne disease which transforms the residents, called Yharnamites, into honorific beasts. Attempting to find the rouse of the plague, the player’s character unravels the city’s mysteries while fighting beasts and cosmic beings.”
As with everything, you have to take this with a grain of salt. However, given Sony’s recent ventures into adapting their franchises for TV and film (such as Twisted Metal for Peacock), this may well be the next one.
Bloodborne was exclusively released for the PlayStation 4 back in 2015.
Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.
Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”
Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.
And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
