Sony Interactive Entertainment may have accidentally leaked an acquisition of the Demon’s Souls and Shadow of the Colossus remake developer Bluepoint Games.
The official Japanese PlayStation Twitter account posted an image with the PlayStation Studios logo and Bluepoint Games logo that also included the text "Welcome to the Family." In the background it includes screenshots of first-party games, including the Demon’s Souls remake. The tweet has since been deleted.
Sony Interactive Entertainment earlier today announced it had acquired Returnal developer Housemarque with a very similar image, but without a screenshot from the Demon’s Souls remake.

Hmm, why would they delete that? Don't wanna take away from Housemarque's announcement? I was honestly surprised Sony HADN'T already acquired Bluepoint lol they do great work!
Bluepoint has become the Remake/Remaster specialists we needed.
If I was sony management I would set them on "the Legend of Dragoon" next, its a big project. If they pulled it off faithfully and it was well recieved, give them the chance to make a sequel :)
I am currently playing demon souls remake and all I am gonna say is sony couldnt acquired a better studio that fit their classics portfolio.
The masters of remasters & remakes. This is bigger grab than HM imo. Now get them working on "The Legend of Dragoon" remake. Then finance a sequel afterwards.
Get them on The Legend of Dragoon Remake!
So much this! :)
You Monster !! you know BraLoD's been working on that for decades and you want to take away the only thing in the world that makes his miserable and squalid existence seem bearable, it's not his fault that all those years of cruelty inflicted upon him by Yoshida had unhinged him to the extent that he believed that having The legend of Dragoon remake follow the progress of Half-Life3 step by step was the best and quickest and most importantly cheapest way to complete the game.
I am just adding to the fuel of making this Remake happen! PlayStation, BluePoint, The Legend of Dragoon! COME ON SONY! YOUVE GOT THE OPPORTUNITY NOW!
nice to get the developer of the soon to be timeless classic Demon's Souls.
