This week marks the 30th anniversary of PlayStation, and to celebrate, Sony is rolling out some nostalgic PS5 console features and a short retrospective trailer that’s all about the feels.–specifically, the feelings generated by the biggest first- and third-party games that have appeared on Sony consoles over the years. There are a lot of themes mentioned here–from justice to fantasy–and the trailer ends with a shot of Bloodborne and the word “persistence”.
