Bloodborne On PC Is No Longer A Dream

Expert Verified By

Fans lost hope that Bloodborne would come to PC, but thanks to ShadPS4, it is only a matter of days before the game is playable on the desired platform.

Story Highlight
  • Even after almost a decade, Bloodborne is one of the most loved PlayStation exclusives. 
  • Sony still has no plans to release a remake or a PC port.
  • However, fans took matters into their own hands, and now, thanks to the newly launched ShadPS4, the game is almost playable on PC. 

Bloodborne is, without a doubt, the most requested game by PlayStation and PC fans. The former wants a remake, while the latter wants a PC port. However, Sony isn’t generous enough to grant either one’s request.

While there are many rumors stating that a remake or another project is in the works, I find that hard to believe. It might happen after the release of PS5 Pro or PS6, but before that, I am not buying any of the rumors. 

That said, fans have waited a lot for the PC port, so they took matters into their own hands. Thanks to ShadPS4, a team is working on porting Bloodborne to PC, and it is no longer a dream; let me tell you why.

Why it matters: Bloodborne was released 9 years ago and to this date, PlayStation hasn’t taken the demand from fans seriously.

Bloodborne Is Finally Coming To PC

Thanks to ShadPS4, Bloodborne On PC is Inevitable 

Bloodborne coming to PC was a dream before ShadPS4 was released. It could only be booted with the help of other emulators. No further progress was being made, but that changed once ShadPS4 was released. This emulator has been a complete game changer, as in just a small amount of time, almost the whole game has been made playable. 

The emulation team has been progressing rapidly, and this PlayStation exclusive is said to be playable by the end of this month. This is by no means a stretch, as you can see the progress. Just recently, the team reached Orphan of Cos, the final DLC boss

Fans have been waiting for a long time to witness this legendary moment. The PC port is no longer a dream, and you can have high hopes this time. At first, I didn’t have any expectations either, but just days after the emulator was launched, Bloodborne was playable on it, even in a broken condition. 

So, if this game can be emulated, then it means many of the other long-awaited PS4 titles can come to PC, too. Still, fans should keep their expectations in check and wait just for the Yharnam adventure to become real.

The Progress Has Been Unreal

Many Rumors Point Toward A Remake or A Remaster, but No Official Announcement Has Been Made Yet

The game is still being emulated, but as mentioned before, it is expected to be playable by the end of this month. If you haven’t been following the progress, then I would recommend checking Pirat_Nation on Twitter, as this account has been posting about it for a while now. 

At first, it was running at 15 FPS with really poor textures and no sound. However, just look at it now. Sure, it doesn’t run as it does on PS5, but it hasn’t even been that long since the team started working on this project. There is hope now; there is finally hope.

You should also note one thing: to play this game, a low-end setup might not cut it. Now, why is that, as PS4 isn’t that strong of a hardware? The game is going to need a lot of optimization, so as soon as it is released, it might only run properly on high-end setups. 

However, fret not. You are unlikely to wait for long as the progress has been so great. 

You Will Finally Be Able To Explore The Long Awaited Yharnam

Playing as The Hunter and exploring every corner of Yharnam and beyond won’t be just a dream now. The emulators have literally made most of the game playable in a matter of weeks, and I am being literal here. 

PC fans who have been waiting for so long will now be able to fight the horrifying bosses in this game. However, I recommend lowering your expectations quite a bit. I have played this game on PS4 before, and it isn’t nearly as good as people make it sound.

I enjoy Souls games more than anything else, but in my opinion, Bloodborne is overrated. There are just a few bosses in the game that are actually good. However, the DLC is another story. You can have higher expectations for the DLC but do not think that the experience is going to be easy.

The game also has its fair share of horror, giving it a different vibe than the rest of FromSoftware’s medieval fantasy titles. In many ways, Bloodborne’s atmosphere is still in a league of its own, so I can’t wait to see it coming to PC.

Here’s hoping Sony doesn’t shut down this project and PC fans finally get to play this game.
