At this point, Bloodborne fans are so starved that a low-resolution Psn avatar would get the fanbase buzzing. FromSoftware’s gothic horror love letter to Lovecraft was released nearly nine years ago, and we haven’t heard anything regarding it since.
This isn’t to say Sony has entirely forgotten the franchise. Far from it, Bloodborne is still highly referenced within the company’s first-party titles, and it seems the company is now toying with fans of the franchise with their latest easter egg in Astro’s Playroom!
Is Sony Hinting at a Yet-To-Be-Revealed Bloodborne Project in Astro’s Playroom? Fans get hope for something related to Bloodborne through Astro!
Our first adventure with Astro was a fun tech demo created to show off the technical capabilities of the PlayStation 5. Each level or ‘world’ is based on some aspect of the PlayStation 5’s build, such as the Ssd Speedway and Memory Meadow.

Bloodborne is an underutilized PlayStation gem that has been collecting dust in the company’s basement for far too long. Fortunately, Team Asobi didn’t forget the iconic Soulsborne exclusive from the previous console generation and paid homage through Astro Bot as a cosmetic item.
The family-friendly franchise of the developers is the perfect way to reminisce about the history of the company. Although the gaming community has been begging for new content related to the Soulsborne game, this is probably the closest the fans will get to a remaster.

Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception holds a special place in many people’s PlayStation-loving hearts. Back in 2011, it was one of the first games to properly showcase the PlayStation 3’s true capabilities, with stunning visuals and groundbreaking gameplay backed by a compelling story.
It wasn’t just the single-player component, either. Uncharted 3‘s multiplayer had carved out a niche of its own, offering a blend of the trademark Uncharted adventures with intense Pvp and Pve action that kept players hooked for hours on end.

A couple days ago, Sony Pictures unveiled a trailer for their Marvel Comics adaptation Venom: The Last Dance, giving us our first look at the film that’s meant to wrap up the Venom series and is aiming for an October 25th theatrical release. Now Forbes has published an interview with star Tom Hardy in which he talks about ending the series with a bang – and teased that this movie might have an R rating. (The previous two Venom movies were rated PG-13.)
Hardy told Forbes, “This one – I’m so, so excited about because we’ve gone much bigger. If the mission statement is commercial, blockbuster, action and superhero movie, how can we imbue a sense of something that’s fun and different? What’s going to entice people that they have a memory, they have a moment, they have an event? This comes from us who are really,...

In the Call of Duty Series, one of the most memorable missions is All Ghillied Up. The mind behind this mission was Mohammad Alavi, who later got to work on Titanfall 2. In an interview, Alavi shared his thoughts about the Call of Duty and what is his thinking process for Titanfall 2.

Astro’s Playroom was just a precursor to the upcoming Astro Bot, the first full-fledged game featuring PlayStation’s cute little robot mascot. Where the first title was intended to be more of a tech demo for the PS5’s capabilities, the new game will feature more of a storyline for the little bot.
We’re going to see a lot of returning aspects from the Playroom, including an emphasis on showcasing the system’s capabilities. However, there is one aspect that won’t be making a return to the next installment, and it’s something that might rub Sony the wrong way!

Single-player titles are not going anywhere anytime soon, but their format has changed considerably. Namely, studios have tried to implement systems that allow for continuous monetization instead of a one-time purchase.

A third film in the Marvel Comics-inspired Venom franchise made its way through production last year, shutting down for several months along the way due to the Screen Actors Guild strike. Now the film, titled Venom: The Last Dance, is aiming for an October 25th theatrical release – and today, Sony Pictures is starting to build the hype by unveiling the first trailer! You can check it out in the embed above.
The first Venom was scripted by Jeff Pinker, Scott Rosenberg, and Kelly Marcel. Ruben Fleischer directed that film, which made $856 million. But then Fleischer turned his focus to making Zombieland: Double Tap and Uncharted – so Andy Serkis took over as director on Venom: Let There Be Carnage.

Naughty Dog, the team that made the really liked The Last of Us games, is telling fans that they are working on more than one new game that is different from The Last of Us. Personally, I think this is great because Naughty Dog is known for its storytelling and universes. Staying in one franchise keeps us from seeing others flourish.
According to an interview with the LA Times, Neil Druckmann, the boss of the studio, just said that Naughty Dog is working on many games. This is especially true for those where you play alone, and the story and characters are really important. This matches what the studio did before, like The Last of Us and Uncharted.

Ghost of Tsushima had the perfect balance between gameplay and narrative in the video game format and producers believe it is fit for a live-action adaptation. Chad Stahelski will serve as the director and once mentioned his ideal cast to be purely Japanese for authenticity.

Arguably the most popular video game voice actor out there, Troy Baker has one of the most unique portfolios in the industry. On one hand, he has starred in epic video-game series such as The Last of Us, Uncharted, and Death Stranding.
On the other, he has voiced characters such as The Batman, Joker, Hawkeye and even Loki in various media forms. The Joel Miller of The Last of Us video game franchise, Baker was also involved in the TV series and played the minor role of James. While the leading role eventually went to Pedro Pascal, who did as good a job as one can expect, the Chilean superstar was not Baker’s first choice for the role.

It was mostly a letdown.
Outside of a few updates on remakes like Silent Hill 2, remasters like Until Dawn, and a PC port of God of War: Ragnarök, there were only a handful of new games to show off, the biggest of which was Firewalk Studios’ Concord, a new multiplayer shooter whose CGI-only trailer failed to show players much gameplay, leaving audiences mostly confused as to what the game really is.

While its predecessor, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice, took seven years to complete, Hellblade 2‘s development began in 2020 and was completed in just four years. This short timeline is particularly impressive given the game’s stunning graphics, which many attribute to the use of Unreal Engine 5.

Despite all of this success, when Baker was asked to step into the role of Nathan Drake’s brother, Sam in Naughty Dog’s Uncharted 4: A Theif’s End, he knew that would be a significant and intimidating challenge even with his great resume.

After delivering impressive performances in movies like The Impossible and In the Heart of the Sea, Tom Holland hit the big time when he was cast as Peter Parker in 2016's Captain America: Civil War.
He'd go on to star in Spider-Man: Homecoming, Avengers: Infinity War, Avengers: Endgame, Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Spider-Man: No Way Home, becoming an MCU veteran in just five years. However, outside of his Marvel Studios work, Holland has struggled.
While he's impressed on the animation side in Onward and Spies in Disguise, Cherry, Chaos Walking, Uncharted, and his first TV series, The Crowded Room, all drew mixed-to-negative reviews.
As a result, it's hard to shake the feeling that, outside of Spider-Man, Holland is struggling to make his mark. In contrast, his girlfriend and fellow MCU actor Zendaya, has received critical acclaim for her work in Dune and The Challengers.

The first look at Season 2 of “The Last of Us” was unveiled on Wednesday featuring stars Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey. HBO and Max chief Casey Bloys debuted the images during the Warner Bros. Discovery Upfront presentation in New York City.
The show chronicles the story of Joel (Pascal) and Ellie (Ramsey) as they navigate a world overrun with zombies infected with a parasitic fungus — not to mention the ruthless vigilantes, mercenaries and cannibals just as desperate to survive. Just as the first season of “The Last of Us” was adapted from the acclaimed 2013 video game of the same title, Season 2 of the series is expected to follow the events of its 2020 sequel, “The Last of Us Part II,” which deals with the fallout from Joel’s actions in the season 1 finale.

It’s been years since the release of Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and the fans are patiently waiting for the next entry in the franchise. While Crystal Dynamics is working hard on the title, leaks have suggested that we’ll see a more experienced Lara Craft with a demeanor comparable to the one in classic games. Although it’s unclear if the leaks of her guiding a new generation of Tomb Raiders are true, many fans hope the next game will be a hit.
Although Uncharted is a fantastic video gaming franchise, its similarities with Tomb Raider have seen both games being compared very often, with the former stealing a lot of attention on the PS3 and PS4 consoles. However, one of the senior brand directors for Tomb Raider at Crystal Dynamics has stated that a fine line separates Lara’s long-running series from Sony’s adventure franchise.

Hulu’s list of new releases for May 2024 is missing a certain amount of original series firepower. In the place of a blockbuster like The Handmaid’s Tale or Shōgun, however, is some content diversity.
The first of the month sees the premiere of four-episode British series Shardlake. This mystery drama takes place during the reign of Henry VIII and features none other than Thomas Cromwell (Sean Bean) investigating a murder. Other series of note this month include the Korean drama Uncle Samsik on May 15.
Movies are bit more interesting on Hulu in May. Teen comedy Prom Dates premieres on May 3. That will be followed by the 2023 Adam Drive film Ferrari on May 24. Before all that though is the real heavy hitter. You can watch Austin Butler’s acclaimed performance as The King in Elvis as early as May 1. But get to it quick before the Baz Luhrmann film departs on...
