Bloodborne is the 10th best-selling first-party PS4 game of all time

While it may have launched as a ‘relatively’ niche title back in 2015, FromSoftware’s PS4 exclusive Bloodborne has only grown in popularity with each passing year. Despite Sony doing very little with the IP since, Bloodborne was in fact one of PlayStation’s biggest PS4 titles of all time.

As reported by known industry analyst Mat Piscatella in honour of Bloodborne’s 10th anniversary, it was revealed that the FromSoftware/PlayStation collaboration worked out massively in the long term.

Though the last official figures placed Bloodborne as having sold 7.5 million copies by February 2022, according to Piscatella the game managed to become one of the biggest for PlayStation during the 8th generation, writing:

“Bloodborne is top 70 all-time in PS4 US full game dollars (phys & digital for DLP). Ranks #12 in PS4 US full game dollars for Sony published titles (10th if you remove Destiny & Destiny 2 which were published by other folks at the time of release).”

This achievement is extra impressive when considering that the game was one of Sony’s lesser-marketed titles and remains a 1080p 30fps experience with uneven frame pacing and no current-gen (or even PS4 Pro) support.

Whether we will ever see the return of Bloodborne is unknown, but financially at least, it seems as though Sony would be silly not to do more with the IP. Here’s to hoping.
