Bluepoint Games' next game is being developed for the PlayStation 5 and is a "big one"
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
I don't even know why MGS is part of the speculation. What the hell has Konami done since they fired Kojima that makes people think that they're going to invest in an expensive remake? They've done nothing but PES, remasters, re-releases and low budget entries for new games.
They make the distinction between it and SoTC.
There was a rumor going around and people held into it for some reason.
lol don't think that extreme reach is an obvious reference.
If it's for PS5 then I would think it's an original project and not a SOTC style remake. Bluepoint has expressed interest in making an original project in the past.
I mean...is Gears of War niche because that sells less than Souls games now?
I want it to be Demon Souls or MGS4 but I don't really see how the PS5 will re-invent those games. They're both pretty slow-paced and methodical. Unless they're going the whole "re-imagined" route and just doing an entirely new and different version of an older game?
I don't know, but it's exciting.

I honestly haven't heard any rumors about MGS. It just seemed like some weird fan speculation. MGS doesn't even lineup with their job listings. For example, one of them from late last year was a listing for an artist to help create weapons and armor.
And this is exactly how I perceive it as well. I recognize the importance of the game with regard to setting in motion the Souls series, but I think nostalgia has clouded the reality that everything the game does has been refined with Dark Souls 1 - 3. While it would be a first-time experience for a lot of people, I think many would recognize just how inferior it is compared to Dark Souls. In many ways I find it similar to Uncharted.
And with that said, I don't mean to suggest that it isn't worth experiencing, because it absolutely is. Would I take a Demon's Souls remaster? Hell yeah! It would be another Souls game for me to replay ad nauseam. I'm only commenting on how I view the game with relative to Bluepoint calling their next project "a big one."
Bummer if Demon's is PS5 exclusive.
I wish we could at least get a basic ass remaster for the PS4.
Miyazaki did say they weren't interested in doing it themselves, even if offered, though. Dark Souls Remastered was handled by QLOC.

It's not From's IP to outsource. Sony gives it to whoever they want to.

It's not a SOTC style remake. There's a quote in the OP that everyone are ignoring for some reason.
I still find Demon's much stronger than Dark Souls 2 and 3. Anyone who thinks convenience is more important than design likely can't even go back to Dark Souls 1 after 3 anyway, so they wouldn't want to touch Demon's.
lol so you're just going to ignore the context of Demon's Souls 'flopping' (it didn't actually) and everything that has happened up until now? Cool.
The IP belongs to Sony. FROM don't have a say in the matter, same as they wouldn't for any future remasters, remakes or sequels to Bloodborne.
I've went over this in my head many times and the only conclusion I come to is Demons Souls via process of elimination.
Not a God of War remake because they are not going back to those old ones with the success of the new one + all the other GoW games already got enhanced ports/remasters.
Uncharted series and Last of Us already got great remasters
Killzone series doesn't seem popular enough or good enough to warrant a full blown remake. I don't even see remasters happening.
Metal Gear Solid 4 or just Metal Gear games in general just don't seem like a thing Konami is going to collaborate on anymore. Perhaps one day we get quick and easy ports of the HD collection again but that's it. Also a full-on MGS4 remake doesn't make sense since it could be ported and look just fine at 1080p 60fps with minimal asset rework I think.
I can't think of any other Sony properties that would be considered big and haven't already been redone in some form and would still be popular enough to warrant a remake. Unless they are going way back to some older Sony property from like PS1 or 2 era that used to be popular and I'm just forgetting about it, I just don't know what else it could be.
Demons Souls is the only one that makes sense.
1 - Souls games are popular and liked.
2 - Demons Souls would benefit greatly from a full-on remake. (Visuals are technically dated, QoL improvements are needed)
3 - No other official form of the game exists. Stuck on PS3.

Jason Schreier said there will be a Demon's Souls remaster/remake.
idk probably the outsourced remaster of Dark Souls or FS saying it's up to Sony.
