PlayStation Executive Explains Why Acquisition of Demon’s Souls Studio Will Result in Better Games

After months of speculations and rumors, Sony finally announced another studio acquisition- Bluepoint Games (devs of Demon Soul remake for PS 5). Both the studios have worked closely with each other for years now. Recently, Sony confirmed that the Demon Soul remake for PlayStation 5 has sold over 1.5 million copies since release (November 2020), which is quite impressive.

PlayStation’s official Twitter handle introduced the next member of the PlayStation family. According to both the studios, this acquisition is mutually beneficial to produce the best work. Bluepoint Games has worked on some of the most successful and popular titles for PlayStation such as Uncharted, Demon Soul Remake, and Shadow of the Colossus. It is clearly no surprise that eventually Sony scooped up the Studio. This is Sony’s third acquisition this year, including Nixxes and Housemarque.

Why PlayStation is perfect for Bluepoint Games?

According to Bluepoint Studios, PlayStation has an iconic gaming catalog, and becoming a part of it is very empowering. The studio also highlighted the point that their team is extremely skilled and experienced. They have an original game development mindset and the team is finally all ready to push Sony forward and show what incredible things PlayStation can do.

Herman Hulst (PlayStation studio Head) said, “Bluepoint Games is now in a place where there’s hardly an entity imaginable that knows PlayStation better than they do because they have worked with so many different teams on their respective iconic franchises that they have a developer insight in a wonderful way.”

Bluepoint is working on its next original content

To top it all off, Bluepoint is currently working on its next project. This time, not a remake, not a remaster, but an original game. So far, there are no details about this project and fans may have to wait a bit longer to have a small look at the new game. Hopefully, Bluepoint soon reveals this mysterious project.
