- Bluepoint Games is hiring for a game with “third-person melee action”
- With its history working on the Demon’s Souls remake, it’s speculated that the unannounced project could be Bloodborne
- This will be the studio’s latest project since its live service game was canceled
Demon’s Souls studio Bluepoint Games is officially hiring for a new, unannounced project, and fans think it could be that long-awaited Bloodborne remake.
As spotted by Tech4Gamers (via Shinobi602), a new job listing for a ‘Senior Combat Designer’ is now live on Bluepoint’s careers page, and details several qualifications that confirm the game will be a third-person action game.
Among the qualifications is experience working in combat design, as well as a “solid understanding of combat systems and mechanics for 3rd-person melee action experiences.”
The job role also confirms it’ll be working on “AI gameplay”, which could mean enemy AI, “character balance and controls”, “high-level character design intent, combat flow plans, and respective systems”, and more.
Bluepoint hasn’t announced its next project just yet, but the listing does suggest that combat will play a major part in the game, and considering it released a remake of Demon’s Souls in 2020, it’s difficult not to think of the possibility of a Bloodborne remake or remaster.
After Demon’s Souls‘ launch alongside the PS5 five years ago, Bluepoint was reportedly working on an announced live-service game thought to be a God of War title; however, the project was canceled in January alongside another live service game from Days Gone developer, Bend Studio.
