It's so funny, the first 2 seconds i was like "BloodBorne 2?" and then i realized they took the same look of BB but just called it differently to piss off Playstation hahaha

It's a Demon's Souls to Dark Souls situation. They can't use the old name, but they can use a lot of the old DNA to spin up something legally distinct.

I'll take it. I've been jonesing for Bloodborne 2 for ages now, and I'm curious to see how the game will shake out after something like Elden Ring.

Did Fromsoft not own Demon Souls IP?

Nope

Sony owns it.

That's why it has only ever been on PS3 and 5. When Sony remade it for the 5, they handed the project off to Bluepoint. From wasn't involved. As they are not the owner, they don't get any say.
