Fans as addicted to From Software’s brand of tough but fair games as they are attached to their Windows PCs can now enjoy Bloodborne with nothing but a subscription. The game was recently added to PlayStation Now, Sony’s game streaming service for PlayStation and PC, so while it may never shed its exclusivity with the console, there is now a way to enjoy the game without having to shell out for a PS4. The exclusive was released in 2015 and has yet to make its way to any other platform, at least as a full-fledged port. Take Bloodborne, for example – the From Software game was published by Sony as an exclusive for the PlayStation 4, which deprived many a fan of the developer’s critically acclaimed, multi-platform Demon’s Souls and Dark Souls series from playing their newest RPG. While there’s nothing unethical about this business practice, it certainly doesn’t do any favors to the gaming community. Exclusives serve as the bait with which console manufacturers reel in new customers and keep them tethered to their platform.
