Internal PC Version of Bloodborne, The Old Hunters DLC Exists, Dataminer Says

gadgets.ndtv.com:

As rumours of a Bloodborne PC port or remaster continue circling years after its release on the PS4, there is now evidence confirming the existence of one. In a tweet, renowned Dark Souls modder and dataminer Lance McDonald claims to have spotted curiously-named screenshots that point toward a full retail PC version of the game. The images in question were uploaded to the Bloodborne Fandom wiki by Marcos Domencech, a senior environment artist, who has worked with developer FromSoftware on several games. The screenshots are named ‘SPRJ-win64' which according to McDonald is the game's file name convention when taking screenshots from the debug menu.

You can test it for yourself: head over to the ‘Oil Pitcher' Fandom page and look for screenshots of the Oil Urns in the gallery section. The title notes ‘win64' alongside Domencech's name, which suggests that he took a screenshot and posted the raw image file — without changes — onto the wiki website. Alternatively, you can check out his ArtStation portfolio which contains even more samples of his work on Bloodborne, all of which follow the same naming convention when trying to save it locally on a PC. What's more intriguing is that the images are from the Fishing Hamlet, the final area in The Old Hunters DLC, that has you fight the erratic Orphan of Kos boss to seal the deal. This implies that the PC version in question includes the full game + DLC — which sadly, might never see the light of day.

McDonald, who rose to prominence by creating the 60fps patch for Bloodborne, claims that the screenshots have been taken from the “actual full retail version” of the game that's running on Windows.
