So, what the title says. The next game of Fromsoftware, (besides a DLC for Elden Ring) Is gonna be crossgen or nextgen only?

What do you expect and what is gonna end happening?

Considered that it may be 3/4 years away.
Is going to be a sequel or a new IP?

Discuss.

 

[RPSleon]

Its gonna be a single plataform exclusive, on switch.

 

[Mister Wolf]

It will be current gen. That engine of theirs is so shitty and outdated it won't even matter.

 

[ANDS]

Don't care as long as it is anything but open world and high fantasy.

 

[Jennings]

It'll be multiplatform.

 

[DelireMan7]

I wouls say Current gen only. Based on nothing tangible

 

[AmuroChan]

Next-gen only, multiplatform.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Bloodborne 2 please.

 

[The Alien]

Wasn't there a rumor of From working on an XBox console exclusive?

 

[SSfox]

 

[LazyParrot]

Wasn't there a rumor of From working on an XBox console exclusive?

There are rumors about From Software working on just about anything.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Bloodborne 2 please.

By Bluepoint

 

[Knightime_X]

It'll be cross gen most likely.
Probably because their next game won't be out until next gen.

Unless it's a NOT-SOULS games.
Then it's possible it's current gen but I won't hold my breath for that.

 

[Danjin44]

I doesn't make any difference for me, as long as they deliver on great art direction like they always do I'm happy.

 

[AJUMP23]

Elden ring 2 on all current platforms.

 

[Markio128]

Bloodborne 2 or nothing for me.

 

[yurinka]

I assume it will be released in 2025/2026, so it will be next gen only. If instead they had other game under development since some years ago (since 2018-2020) ready to be released late 2023 or early 2024 I think it will be crossgen.

I'd like them to focus on releasing a PS5 only Bloodborne II even if codeveloped with someone else like Bluepoint and/or Team Asobi.

 

[The Fartist]

 

[reksveks]

Armored Core, cross gen

 

[Danjin44]

For some weird reason mecha games just do very poorly in west.

 

[killatopak]

It's been so long.

Coming from a fan of theirs since their Armored Core days, I really hope they take a rest from souls games and revisit their old IPs.

 

[TheRedRiders]

Wasn't there a rumour a while back they were developing a Playstation exclusive? Judging by the release of ER, we won't see another From game for at least another year or two, so likely current-gen is my guess.

 

[tusharngf]

It's going to be 30fps for sure

 

[nominedomine]

I'm expecting an Elden Ring DLC then a current game, most likely Elden Ring 2 given how much it sold.

 

[Captain Toad]

Hopefully, PS5 only. Bloodborne 2 or Bloodborne spiritual successor

 

[Akt]

Stadia only.

 

[Bartski]

it will be multi platform Armored Core cross-gen and the one to follow will be Sony collab for PS5 and PC

 

[Hawking Radiation]

For the love of God, please please please drop this cross gen nonsense.

Next gen only and I don't care whether its on Series X or PS5. Just give me a next gen game.

 

[Lokaum D+]

hopefully it ll use a new engine

 

[Fart Knight]

Xbox only

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

Ain't gonna matter.

 

[worldwithpyramids]

Feel like it’ll be current gen only.

 

[FunkMiller]

Bloodborne 2 will be Ps5 exclusive.

 

[Naked Lunch]

It better be Armored Core.
...or there will be riots from me and its 12 other fans.

 

[NikuNashi]

Even if its current gen, it will still look worse than last gen games.

 

[joedan]

Don’t care about the gen; they only need to make sure that it’s Sekiro 2.

 

[Hawking Radiation]

Even if its current gen, it will still look worse than last gen games.

You want to die bro?!
That's something you never speak of in a From thread.

 

[sendit]

Even if its current gen, it will still look worse than last gen games.

 

[NinjaMouse]

Definitely cross-gen. I predict the PS6 version will look better, but PS5 will run better. Choose wisely.

 

[Craig of War]

It will be a cloud native game

 

[Yoda]

Usually ~2-3 years between titles and that gap has been growing overtime. I doubt anyone is taking the time to port games PS4 in 2025.

 

[Elder Legend]

Wasn't there a rumor of From working on an XBox console exclusive?

there was, but it was debunked if I am not mistaken.

 

[consoul]

DeraciNi PSVR2

 

[Rhazer Fusion]

At the rate we are going, probably multiplatform and cross generation.

 

[lh032]

Bloodborne 2, current gen on only PS5, lets gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[DeaconOfTheDank]

They could keep making games at the same graphical fidelity of Sekiro/Elden Ring and I would be perfectly content; GPU requirements could stay fixed for current gen.

The only reason I could see them going next-gen is if they keep going down the open-world route so streaming becomes a bottleneck and forces a reliance on the SSD. Additionally, if enemy AI becomes complex enough to adopt more immersive sim elements then the CPU will be constraint to consider.

 

[Rac3r]

Wasn't there a rumor of From working on an XBox console exclusive?

There was a rumor that they were working on a sci-fi game for xbox but it got debunked pretty quickly. Haven't heard of any other rumors.

 

[LazyParrot]

Current gen multiplat is the only choice that makes sense. Whatever game they’ll do next will be so far off that a crossgen release would be out of the question. Single platform exclusives are also dead on both Xbox and Playstation, everything is gonna end up on PC - if not at launch then sooner rather than later.

 

[PSlayer]

I hope they go nextgen only so we can see a bloodborne-like jump in visuals, but giving how hard is to get PS5s/SeriesXs it would make sense for them to do a last cross gen game.

 

[Leo9]

The next game is not coming before 2024 at the earliest. No chance it will be crossgen, come on.
