Trust me, if you like Bloodborne, you’re gonna love this cult classic PS1 gem.
However, there is a small glimmer of sunshine. With PS5 Pro consoles now out in the wild, players have found a way to slightly enhance Bloodborne, but sadly, it doesn’t really look any different.
Bloodborne Gets Boosted By PS5 Pro
When digging through the PS5 Pro’s options, players have found the ability to “Enhance Image Quality for PS4 Games“, a category that Bloodborne squarely falls into.
So, of course, given the opportunity, those lucky enough to have Sony’s mid-gen refresh early tested it out on FromSoftware’s title and shared the results on ResetEra.
However, to the naked eye, the images that were shared looked almost identical, especially on a phone screen or PC monitor where most are likely to view the images, but it still got the community talking.
So much have the Bloodborne fans been beaten down, though, there was a shred of excitement that the game was at least getting some level of enhancement. Many flocked to the thread to declare it looked “a bit better”, “a little clearer”, and had a “slight detail boost”. It’s hardly a rousing reception, but with fans feeding on crumbs for almost ten years, it’s something.
Bloodborne is a PlayStation 4-exclusive title developed by Dark Souls and Elden Ring creator FromSoftware, and launched in 2015. A critically acclaimed action role-playing game, you must traverse the city of Yharnam seeking a cure for a mysterious illness.
