Franchise merchandise remains one of the few ways dormant game series can stay visible between major releases. For Bloodborne fans, that means the next official product is not a sequel, remaster, PC port, or new platform version, but a premium umbrella inspired by one of the game’s most mysterious endings. Super Groupies has opened pre-orders for the item, with delivery expected in mid-April 2027.
Bloodborne’s Long Wait Continues
FromSoftware’s Bloodborne launched exclusively on PlayStation 4 in 2015 and quickly earned widespread critical acclaim. Its aggressive combat, grotesque Lovecraftian setting, nightmarish enemies, and deliberately cryptic story helped establish it as one of the studio’s most celebrated games.
More than a decade later, the original remains the only native release. PlayStation 5 owners can play the PS4 version through backward compatibility, but Bloodborne has not received a native release on another platform. Fans have repeatedly asked for a PC version or a modern upgrade, yet no sequel, remake, remaster, or PS5 edition has been announced.
A Collectible Based on Childhood’s Beginning
The new Super Groupies product draws specifically from Bloodborne’s Childhood’s Beginning ending. It is a foldable, eight-rib umbrella with a jet-black design intended to match the game’s dark visual identity.
Caryll Runes decorate the outer canopy, while the interior uses imagery and references connected to the ending. The tie wrap features an infant Great One, and the umbrella cover carries the Bloodborne logo. That makes the item more than a generic branded accessory: its design is tied to one of the game’s most distinctive pieces of lore.
Price, Pre-Orders, and What Comes Next
The umbrella is priced at $125.99, and pre-orders are currently available. Super Groupies lists delivery for mid-April 2027, so buyers will be waiting well beyond the initial order period to receive it.
The timing gives Bloodborne another official moment in the spotlight, but it does not change the franchise’s software situation. FromSoftware is working on other projects, including The Duskbloods, a multiplayer-focused Switch 2 exclusive. That game may appeal to players looking for familiar FromSoftware combat, although it is not a continuation of Bloodborne.
For now, the community’s return to Yharnam will continue to rely on the existing PS4 release, annual events such as Return to Yharnam, and ongoing speculation about the studio’s future plans. A rumored FromSoftware Soulslike pirate game remains unsubstantiated in the available information.
Key points
- Super Groupies is offering a Bloodborne umbrella for $125.99.
- The design is based on the Childhood’s Beginning ending.
- Pre-orders are open, with delivery expected in mid-April 2027.

Expert View
This release highlights the unusual position Bloodborne occupies in the modern games market. The franchise still has strong recognition and an active audience, but its official presence remains concentrated around a single 2015 title and licensed merchandise. A $125.99 collectible can maintain interest among dedicated fans, yet it also underlines the gap between community demand and confirmed software plans. Until FromSoftware or PlayStation announces a substantial return to Yharnam, products like this umbrella will remain reminders of the game’s lasting appeal rather than signs of a new chapter.
