FromSoftware boss Hidetaka Miyazaki is aware of the demand for a Bloodborne PC port among the PS4-exclusive’s fanbase. As it turns out, developers at the storied studio want the same thing, and Miyazaki says: “If I say I want one, I’ll get in trouble as well. But it’s nothing I’m opposed to.”
Fittingly enough, PC Gamer pressed Miyazaki, having previously asked the studio head whether a PC port could be on the cards. They were given the standard company line: “Unfortunately, and I’ve said this in other interviews, it’s not my place to talk about Bloodborne specifically.”
This time, they tried a different tactic, acknowledging that they understand Sony owns the IP but slyly asking whether Miyazaki himself personally would like to see a PC port. This approach yielded some unexpected results (and laughter from the devs). Miyazaki said: “I know for a fact these guys want a Bloodborne PC port,” pointing to producer Yasuhiro Kitao and translator Bobby Simpson.
Rather than remaining quiet, Miyazaki elaborated, offering a rare but illuminating look at the situation: “Obviously, as one of the creators of Bloodborne, my personal, pure, honest opinion is I’d love more players to be able to enjoy it. Especially as a game that is now coming of age, one of those games of the past that gets lost on older hardware — I think any game like that, it’d be nice to have an opportunity for more players to be able to experience that and relive this relic of the past. So, as far as I’m concerned, that’s definitely not something I’d be opposed to.”
