Sony’s investment in FromSoftware could lead to movies or TV shows based on its games, says PlayStation Studios head Hermen Hulst.

While Sony is yet to use an IP that isn’t its own in a PlayStation Productions presentation, its now-established relationship with FromSoftware may lead to a non-gaming-based product coming from the franchise.

Hulst’s comments imply that an Elden Ring or Bloodborne film or TV series could be considered, due to Sony’s investment in the group.The first television series from PlayStation Productions, The Last of Us, will debut next year on HBO. Joel and Ellie will be played The Mandalorian star Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, who is best known for her work in Game of Thrones.

Several other PlayStation properties are currently being adapted. The Umbrella Academy showrunner Steve Blackman is currently developing a show based on the Hozion franchise.

Fuck no

Sony fr made 4 games and have been using them to make all kinds of stuff

Just don't let Amazons lord of the rings team anywhere near it ..

We just asked for a blood borne 60fps patch. Sony would do anything but give us that patch.

This investment in film and tv is of little account to what anyone wants from gaming. Make games, stories can be told through the medium. I just hope gaming directors and writers don’t jump ship, rather embrace the medium.

This is so silly. Aren’t these two “gaming” companies supposed to make.. you know.. GAMES?!

THEN WHERE IS THE SLY TV SHOW! GIVE IT TO US ALREADY!

Bloodborne

No, no more TV shows, no more movies, Video games, or die.

Oh no

Games? Naaas TV TV TV TV

Does this mean we get a King's Field movie?

Remember the horrible dark souls and bloodborne comics. We also have the Elden Ring manga that’s a comedy too

Hmm… guess this indeed… Xbox 2013 all over again. Rebranded

Now plays micolash

Bloodborne series or movie would go hard

Could it lead to a damn Bloodborne remaster

If Elden Ring gets an anime, Pippa has to come back as Malenia!

I don't get why everyone is ignoring the most interesting part of the article: PlayStation Studios head Hermen Hulst told Reuters: “You should think of collaborations on the game development side first and foremost

Let’s fucking go!!

We just want more games specially for PS

I kinda want a book. Just gimmie a story of some poor schmuck and their adventures in the Lands Between. It doesn't have to follow the game's plotline or anything, just it's own standalone plot.

Please.

Jimukas1 chiboiscool

Can't wait to see them ruin our favorite games with shitty writing, bad jokes, and everything wrong with game to TV/movie adaptations.

If there’s a Sekiro TV show, that means Sekiro remake confirmed!

Anything but bloodborne yes

Please god no

They seriously don’t know what they’re doing

Boooooo!

FS games lose their charm outside the gaming format. Bloodborne might actually be an exception, though, since worldbuilding might actually make sense there

at 1st i was open to this but the more i think about it, idk if their worlds/characters would translate well

maybe now we will get a bloodborne remake

I mean, this is their long-term strategy, so its not surprising. They've been clear on this direction. I like the broadening of the IP world, tbh. Gives more chances for more stories to be told in wonderful universes.

Bring us game pass and thats enough

Only if its animated media, not live actions

Sony RN

Errrrrr just make more games

Could we get Sanada Hiroyuki as Wolf in a Sekiro live action, aqizil?

FUck no. Only way to make any from game except sekiro into a TV show/anime or whatever is if they make Sequels like the Age of Fire on his peak and how the Age of fired began and ends and then Dark souls starts.

elden ring tv series

Elden Ring animated PLEASE

Elden ring prequel show

I'm uneducated in joint ownerships. Can Sony even do this with only 14%?

Fuck tv and movies, make more games or bloodbourne pc port

monkeymma_

The only way any Fromsoftware game would work in another visual medium would be anime. I don't need to see Chris Pratt as a hunter or Scarlet Johansson as Lady Maria

Sekiro 2お願いします!

Oh No

Sony could acquire all of Kadokawa and gain a lot. Lots of access to anime, movies, and of course games.

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

If they give us a Bloodborne TV show instead of a remake, I swear to god...

Fuck movies and TV shows, give us games and bloodborne 2

Yes! All i want is a Dark Souls movie....

Bloodborne show = Bloodborne remaster.

Imagine seeing ANY of those monstrosities live action...

JUST GIVE US THE BLOODBORNE REMASTER, PLEASE! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD

But no remake of Bloodborne! lol Who cares.

oh boy a dark souls TV show that totally won't run the image of the games into the ground

Who is asking for all these TV shows. Why can't this clown focus on games ? Dude trying to turn a gaming brand into a multimedia entertainment

Huge! Go PlayStation! I know I speak everybody when I say that our thumbs are getting sore from playing games with the DualSense controller & we’d much rather just watch some of your TV shows & movies. So please, invest less in games & more on TV & movies. Sincerely, PS Nation

Exactly what gamers want.🙄

Seems like that's they're only goal with these big titles, lmao.

The clickbait from websites like you are insane. Hermen said the main focus of this investment are the games, but movies and TV or not unthinkable.

If they make a Bloodborne Movie/TV Show. That guarantees us a PS5 remake. So, really we ought to try begging for a TV Show/Movie instead of the game. 🤔

Literally all they want is bloodborne remastered, a sequel, or something else of the sort that is an actual game

Bloodborne TV series before a PC port? wooooow

Sony already owns the Ip to Demon Souls & Blood Born so that statement makes zero sense

This tv show and movie trend is so stupid.

IMAGINE A BLOODBORNE SERIES

Just make BB2 already. Dont care bout bad unimaginative tv shows or movies. PlayStation fromsoftware_pr

Should only happen if after the half hour point everyone has to do a quiz on the film and if they don’t get all the questions right they’re thrown out of the cinema.

It wound be hilarious if they made a shitty bloodbourne tv show but refused to do a remake or pc release.

‘You should think of collaborations on the game development side first and foremost’

Penis

GamingMitch1990 How about a Bloodborne patch for PS5 or a remake similar to Demon's Souls?

Bloodborne TV show when

I’d be down for an elden ring show or anime

It's Tarnished Time! 🔥👊😎

Hermen said the main focus of this investment are the games and then the TV/movie projects. Make better headlines

Bloodborne anime would be fire

As long as they are not anime

Tv tv tv sounds like Xbox 2013

yep I figured this would happen
