Bloodborne is a spiritual succesor to the Souls series. Google metaseries.

I see people claiming all the time that Xenoblade Chronicles X is not a new IP, but it is. It's a spiritual sucessor to Xenoblade Chronicles, it doesn't take place in the same world.

Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles X are all part of the Xeno metaseries. Demon Souls, Dark Souls 1 & 2 and Bloodborne are all part of the Souls metaseries.

whats the point of youre post? i know everything that you are saying but that doesnt change what im saying either.

Bloodborne and Dark Souls aside from being part of the Soul series have nothing in common, Bloodborne is a new Ip that is part of the Soul series but it isnt a sequel to Dark Souls, it doesnt follow the story and the gameplay has been changed quite a lot, just like Xenoblade is not a sequel to Xenosaga it is just a new IP that is just part of the Xeno series, and the gameplay and story are totally different from Xenosaga.

so in other words Bloodborne is a new IP that is part of the souls series and it would still wouldnt have happened if it wasnt for Sony who approached From Software to get this game done.

but more importantly... we are both right, yeah both Xenoblade and Bloodborne are new IPs, regardless of the fact that they belong in a series of games.

From Software would've probably made a similar Souls game for multiplatforms if they weren't moneyhatted by Sony. So kudos to Sony for taking a potential game away from Microsoft lol.
