While I’m of the firm opinion that games likeBloodborneorElden Ringdon’tneedsequels,I know exactly why people want them, especially Bloodborne which I’d consider to beFromSoftware’sbest game to date, even better thanElden Ring.
Perhaps my opinion will change whenElden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtreedrops later this year, which you can check out below via this gameplay trailer
That being said there are a lot of directions aBloodbornesequel could go, whether it be somewhat linked to the original, or more of a spin-off likeDark Souls 2was to the first game.

The trailer is actually more than a rehash of some of the game’s cutscenes as well, it also features new gameplay of the player’s character facing-off against some powerful new enemies.
The story pitched in the description sets the sequel after the events of the first game’s “true ending” where the hunter defeats the Moon Presence, ends the dream and becomes one of the world’s Gods.
It goes on to say “having consumed high amounts of the Old Blood during the last hunt, his “ascension” was not pure, and has caused the birth of a new race: The Great One Beasts. With his last shreds of humanity, he will have to beckon the help of hunters once more, sending them back in time to when it all started.”

All in all it’s a pretty interesting concept for a sequel, and even retains FromSoftware’s usual expansion trope of mixing in time travel to set up other games and DLC.
Unfortunately the chances of a sequel being made are slim-to-none, though there is rumour of a remaster on the way for the PlayStation 5.
