The GAAS was cancelled, and I guess they couldn't get on the same page for a full new game. But surely there was a remake project they could have taken up lol. Bloodborne for example.

Shame.

How it wasn't decided to have Bluepoint go from the cancelled live service God of War game to heading development on the God of War remake trilogy will forever be one of the biggest fumbles!

Like, it was right there!

As I mentioned in the GOW Remake thread: the remake only exists to not waste the resources that went into the live service title (which is smart). 

But I suppose now not seeing BP attached to it should've raised alarm bells. The only thing I can think is that BP themselves were pitching other ideas that were not being greenlit, and the remake was more a Sony idea that they've pushed onto SMS (or someone at SMS was smart enough to suggest this idea).

Disappointing news. More so because Sony has 1 less studio and 75 people are out of a job rather than out of any reverence for their work. I only ever played their remasters of GOW1, GOW2 and Ico, so I don't have much of an attachment to their work.
