It’s not a PC port or a remake, but Sony is returning to the Gothic world of Bloodborne. There aren’t many details yet — Sony says that “plot details are still being kept under wraps” — but the game is being adapted into “an R-rated animated feature,” with YouTuber Seán “Jacksepticeye” McLoughlin (a known Bloodborne fan) serving as a producer. No word on when the film might be premiering.

First released in 2015 on the PS4, Bloodborne is developed by FromSoftware, the same team behind the dark fantasy Souls series. Like those games, Bloodborne is known for its brutal difficulty, but it’s also beloved for the fully realized city of Yharnam that serves as its setting. In the game, the city is overrun with a virus that turns its residents into violent creatures.
Sony has had, let’s say, mixed results when it comes to adapting its biggest PlayStation properties for film and television. While HBO’s take on The Last of Us has been a hit, other projects like Uncharted and Twisted Metal haven’t been as successful. Up next is a live-action take on God of War coming to Prime Video.
Bloodborne also isn’t the only From title being developed for film. A24 is working on an adaptation of the open-world fantasy of Elden Ring, which will be directed by Alex Garland.
