PlayStation Accidentally Reveals Bluepoint Games Acquisition

PlayStation Bluepoint Games

Looks like Sony may have let the cat out of the bag too soon in announcing some big acquisitions to their PlayStation Studios front, as PlayStation accidentally reveals getting Bluepoint Games while tweeting about the Housemarque acquisition.

As revealed by Nibellion, PlayStation Japan uploaded a number of images to their Twitter page to welcome Housemarque to their PlayStation family — but they also added an image that accidentally reveals them welcoming Bluepoint Games as well.

Soon after, the images were quickly taken down, but Tweetdeck still has the evidence and trail of the posts and it has quickly gone viral through the internet.

For those who have yet to know about Bluepoint Games, here’s an overview about the company from their official website.

Established in 2006, with a team now over 90 people, Bluepoint has developed a history of delivering the highest quality remasters and remakes in the industry. But that’s not enough for us. Our latest project is the largest in our history, and aims to define the visual benchmark for the next generation of gaming hardware.

Our founders were part of the Metroid Prime engineering team, and have been in the industry for over 20 years, while the majority of the team has been in the industry for at least 10 years.

With each game, we set out to achieve industry-defining visuals and gameplay, while fostering the growth and success of our team.

Along with Housemarque and once Sony announce it officially, acquiring Bluepoint Games will definitely bolster their line-up of offerings for the PlayStation library.
