PlayStation's 30th-anniversary celebration culminated with a trailer featuring the highly popular PS4 exclusive, Bloodborne, accompanied by the phrase, "It's about persistence." While the video showcased various PlayStation titles, the inclusion of Bloodborne ignited fervent fan speculation regarding a potential remaster, sequel, or remake.
The trailer, set to a unique arrangement of The Cranberries' "Dreams," highlighted iconic games like Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, and Helldivers 2, each with a thematic caption. Bloodborne's concluding appearance and its accompanying phrase fueled widespread anticipation for a new installment or updated version. This isn't the first time such speculation has surfaced; a previous Instagram post by PlayStation Italia featuring Bloodborne locations similarly sparked excitement.
While the trailer's ending could simply acknowledge Bloodborne's notorious difficulty, emphasizing the player's required persistence, the lack of official confirmation hasn't deterred fans from dreaming of a 60fps remaster with enhanced visuals or a highly anticipated sequel.
Sony's 30th-anniversary celebrations also included a PS5 update featuring a limited-time PS1 boot sequence and customizable themes inspired by past PlayStation consoles. This update allows users to personalize their home screen's appearance and sound effects, offering a nostalgic trip through PlayStation history.
The ability to customize the PS5 home screen with themes and sound effects from previous consoles has been well-received, although the limited-time nature of the update has disappointed some. This update is speculated by some to be a test run for more extensive UI customization options in future PS5 updates.
The wave of speculation extends beyond the PS5 update. Digital Foundry recently corroborated Bloomberg's report of Sony's development of a handheld console designed for PS5 games. While still in its early stages, this move suggests Sony's intention to compete in the portable gaming market currently dominated by Nintendo Switch.
This strategic move by both Sony and Microsoft into handheld gaming is seen as a logical response to the rise of mobile gaming, allowing their devices to complement, rather than compete directly with, smartphones. However, the development and release of these consoles are likely years away, requiring the creation of affordable yet visually impressive devices to challenge Nintendo's dominance.
Meanwhile, Nintendo appears to be ahead in the portable gaming race, with President Shuntaro Furukawa hinting at a Nintendo Switch successor reveal within the current fiscal year.
