Well here's something that we didn't expect to see today: something called Bloodborne Mobile has been rated by the Australian Classification board. Immediately, people are questioning whether Sony is taking us all for a ride — but we would strongly recommend against jumping the gun for now.
The rating is indeed for a video game, but it's been submitted by a company named 'Rock Great Games' — a name that yields precisely zero results when slapped into a search engine. As such, we have no idea what this thing is. Either Sony has put together some kind of brand new studio for this project, or it's simply someone taking the piss.
At this stage, the latter seems far more likely, and it might only be a matter of time until Sony itself investigates — especially if this ends up being an actual mobile game taking advantage of the Bloodborne name.
We suppose that it is a pretty good gag, though, because this rating's already making headlines. At the very least, it should remind Sony that Bloodborne exists. Well, you would hope so, at least.
Bloodborne Mobile...can you even imagine? Remember to gain some all-important insight in the comments section below.

It's someone taking the piss for certain
Bloodborne would actually translate to mobile pretty well. Better than many of Sony's other IP's.
So much talk of Bloodborne, I may have to fire it up again
I read 'Bloodborne' and I started loosing my mind, but when I read 'mobile'...
It must be something like that patent in India for the PS5 brand made by some individual. That's why they coudn't launch the PS5 there from start.
It would be hilarious if they did a mobile version and it actually ran better than the PS4 version.
Lord if this would turn out real... I can't even begin to imagine how people would react. People would lose their minds, and not in a good way!
I believe it. Also runs at 60fps.
mobile gamers aren’t gamers
If true, I’m sure the community’s response to this will be calm and reasonably measured.

I'd be OK with a Remastered version of Bloodborne for PS5 but otherwise I hope they just leave the IP alone. It's true greatness as it is and some things deserve to just stand on their own. Take 'The Big Lebowski' for example. A fantastic, odd-ball, hilraious and great movie but one they NEVER should have done a sequel (of sorts) for.
@nomither6 think you will find they are
Bloodborne fans: Why are we still here? Just to suffer?
"We are born by the blood. Made men by the blood. Our eyes yet to open. Fear the Old Blood"
Maybe this could be a side project used to troll the base before the main thing is revealed. Like in that last Nintendo Direct, where Miyamoto blabbed about Pikmin Bloom for five minutes before they revealed Pikmin 4. Or like how S-E trolled people with that PS4 port of FF7 before officially revealing FF7 Remake later in the year.
Mobile games that are included in PS Plus Premium subscription. Doesn't need to be massively AAA games, but maybe looking at what Netflix is trying to do, but with Sony IPs.
@Artois2 ok
Bloodborne as a mobile game...
Just thinking about it "makes my head shudder uncontrollably" , to quote one of the game's lore texts.
This one my be a scam, but here's hoping Sony doesn't get any bright ideas...
Bloodborne is my favorite game of all-time, but it's also very hard to go back to now. With stable framerates (usually 60fps now), the game feels crazy jittery and choppy. After an hour or so, and as long as I am only playing this one game, it all clicks again though. God DAMMIT Sony, do something to update this game, or make another one.
Bloodborne Kart with microtransactions confirmed!
Jokes aside, Bloodborne has been getting more attention for the wrong reasons. This isn't helping. Sony really needs to step up their game. If there's any Sony first party game that needs a remaster treatment, it's Bloodborne
It's not "Bloodborne mobile", it's the Bloodbornemobile. It's a patent for a new car. Like the batmobile, but bloodier.

@lexveem heh!!
Wouldn't be surprised if it's some chesp mobile knockoff. You'd be surprised to see how mamy mobile games there are with names staken from other games.
This must be that infamous Bloodborne inspired kart game.
No way is this for real. Sony will come down on them hard for sure.
Why don’t they just make it into a pachinko game at this stage…
