Where's Bloodborne 2? Former PlayStation Exec Has A Theory
Bloodborne came out over eight years ago. No FromSoftware game has lived more rent-free in the minds of all the studio’s fans.

After years of waiting and months of leaks, Nintendo has shared the first official preview of what the Switch 2 actually looks like. The handheld hybrid hardware is more of an iterative upgrade on the existing console than perhaps any new device the company’s ever released.
