Sonyheld their State of Play event a couple of days ago, much like they do every few months or so
State of Play is essentially the equivalent of a mini E3-stylePlayStationpresentation. They reveal details about upcoming games. They explain the hardware specs for new consoles. They even announce games.
You know what they never do, though? They never bloody mentionBloodborne- quite possibly the most beloved soulslike of all time and a game that fans have been begging Sony to recognise ever since its last update, The Old Hunters DLC, in 2015.

So, what’s finally sent them all off the deep end? Sony ignoringBloodborne’sexistence is par for the course these days, so why exactly was this State of Play the straw that broke the camel’s back?
Well, it has a little something to do with the recently announced remaster ofHorizon Zero Dawn.
Bloodbornefans now have a target for their collective anger, because they can’t seem to fathom why Sony would opt to remaster a game that came out two years afterBloodborne.

Not to mention,Horizon Zero Dawnalready has a PC port, something that fans have also been begging for long beforeHorizoneven released.
I’m sure I don’t need to explain the logic behind Sony’s decision here. Remastering the more popular game should lead to more sales.
What would be odd however is if the rumours of aDays Goneremaster prove to be true, because according to the same leak that game sold roughly the same amount of copies asBloodborne.

It would also just be weird if that remaster happens to be real, asDays Gonecan already run at 60fps in 4K on the PS5. For comparison,Bloodbornecurrently runs at 30fps on PS5. It’s pretty clear to me which one of the games is more in need of an upgrade; the one that’s actually good.
Yeah, that’s right, I said it. It’s a terrible game. Come at me,Days Gonefans. All five of you.
