From Software’s Bloodborne was showcased today during Sony’s pre-Tokyo Game Show presentation and while the gameplay video showcased still isn’t available for worldwide broadcast, the studio did confirm that it would be releasing in Japan on PS4 in February 5th 2015.
That’s a very interesting release date especially since Sony has given no indication whatsoever as to when the game would be released since debuting it at E3 2014. While many believe that this February release could spark a release in the West around the same time, why didn’t Sony just hint at a Western release at last month’s Gamescom? It feels odd, especially given the lack of big-name games during Sony’s Gamescom presser.
Regardless, From Software hasn’t been releasing its past few Dark Souls games that much earlier in Japan compared to North America and Europe so it’s likely that the February 2015 release could be legit. The developer also announced a limited edition and more details are pending so stay tuned.
