How FromSoftware Should Make Bloodborne 2
Where Could Bloodborne 2 Pick Things Up?
With these three very different endings in mind, the plot for a potential Bloodborne 2 is a complex thing to navigate. Was the Hunter’s purpose fulfilled and the nightmare ended in the original? Well, it either definitely wasn’t or kind of was, depending on which conclusion their story came to. Which was more significant in that sense, Mergo’s demise or the Moon Presence’s? As always with FromSoftware’s worldbuilding and storytelling, so much is left up to interpretation here.
One possible angle to take is one that’s super common with sequels: picking up right where the last instalment left off. This, perhaps, would be the most difficult one to pull off, considering the state of Bloodborne’s world.
With the Moon Presence, Mergo and Micolash (and possibly Healing Church founder Laurence and legendary Hunter Ludwig, if the player defeated them in the DLC) all gone from this plane, and the Hunter a tiny squid-leech of a baby Great One, who’s in charge here? What would a new Hunter’s objective be? It would be a real logistical challenge to sort through all of this.
