Digital Foundry has released a new video showcasing the PS4 emulator ShadPS4 running Bloodborne and its recent optimization improvements. The footage demonstrates the game running at 60 FPS and above, and notably highlights its performance on the ROG Xbox Ally X handheld system, where it reaches 60 FPS with occasional hitches. Bloodborne originally launched in 2015 for PlayStation 4 and, despite desperate calls from fans for a 60 FPS update on PlayStation 5, a remake, or a PC port, it remains locked to the PlayStation 4 version.
