When we think of FromSoftware\u2019s Bloodborne<\/a>, one of two thoughts comes to mind. One is \u201cWow, what an amazing game!\u201d and the second is \u201cThey should really port that to PC or PlayStation 5 with performance enhancements.\u201d Instead of the latter, what if you went the hard opposite and released the game on old hardware? Bloodborne PSX, an in-development demake the 2015 game in the style of a PlayStation 1 title, is just that, and it looks more enticing than you\u2019d think.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Developer Lilith Walther has been tinkering on Bloodborne PSX since 2017, and those who have followed her on Twitter<\/a> have seen the project take shape over the years. Other designers and artists have contributed to the project as well, such as composer Evelyn Lark<\/a>. Walther has previously shown off demade versions of the Derelict Estate<\/a> and Father Gasgione<\/a> boss fight, and the latest video shows how the team revamped the game\u2019s memorable opening sequence. Frankly, it looks fantastic.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Walter has previously confirmed<\/a> that she plans to release the finished game at some point but that it won\u2019t be playable on an actual PS1 since it runs on Unreal Engine. I want a 4K\/60fps version of Bloodborne as much as the next fan, but I\u2019d be perfectly happy with playing a \u201890s-era take on the game if it looks and runs as well as this. Those interested in catching up with Bloodborne PSX\u2019s development progress up to this point should visit Walther\u2019s YouTube archive, which has previous demos and behind-the-scenes looks at the development process.<\/p>\n
