A tweet from the PlayStation Japan Twitter account has potentially revealed that the company has acquired Bluepoint Games, the American studio behind the Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus remakes.
The now-deleted Tweet was spotted by ResetEra user modiz, as well as Nibel on Twitter. Both posted independent images of the tweet, which shows Japanese text accompanied by artwork for Bluepoint Games and the English text 'Welcome to the family.'

The tweet was posted by PlayStation Japan at approximately the same time PlayStation announced the acquisition of Housemarque. The artwork used for both tweets is near identical aside from two key differences; one has Bluepoint Games' logo instead of Housemarque's, and the deleted image also has the Demon's Souls key art in the montage of games in the background. This suggests that PlayStation Japan may not have simply put the wrong logo up, but instead a whole incorrect piece of bespoke art for a forthcoming announcement. As such, it may potentially be a short amount of time until PlayStation announces the acquisition of Bluepoint Games.
Bluepoint Games was founded in 2006 and has built a reputation on producing top-tier remakes of beloved games. The studio's latest game, Demon's Souls, is a cutting-edge recreation of FromSoftware's 2009 cult classic, and released to rave reviews.
