According to Hidetaka Miyazaki, Bloodborne’s development cycle is still the most challenging of any game from the studio to date. This made the fact that Bloodborne became a unanimous hit all the more rewarding for the team.

In an interview with Game Informer, the FromSoftware director elaborated that this particular title remains extremely personal for him over a decade later. This is because Hidetaka Miyazaki poured a lot of his own ideas into the title.

In particular, he pointed to the story, world-building, and mechanics as areas that were greatly inspired by his own ideas, making for an experience reflective of his specific style of game development.

Bloodborne is a special game for me. It is perhaps the strongest reflection of my type of flavoring of a game that one can experience.
