I'm so looking forward to this. The game surpassed Bloodborne for me which says a lot about me considering Bloodborne was my first soulslike and the one I've spent the most researching, watching videos about, playing. Very excited
It does say a lot... Sony waited long enough for someone to come and eat their cake. That said, the world building and layers of lore are a universe ahead in bloodborne compared to P. P is a facsimile of a good soulsborne that only succeeded because Sony waited long enough for us to be so desperate as to accept anything. In a world a sequel to BB existed, P would likely fly completely under the radar.
I absolutely loved Lies of P. I am too afraid of souls games but this was quite tightly scoped and very approachable for me (consumables were a neat solution to most of my problems). The music was spot on too!
And more importantly, it looked great and ran so well on all platforms. I can totally see them going the survival horror route, just that I feel we've had enough Resident Evil likes lately (even Alan Wake 2 feels like that).

The character in the poster looks like a young Jack White. Does the character have a seven nation army supporting him?

I personally am 100% certain they were trying to ride the Chalamet train
