More than a decade after its release, Bloodborne remains one of From Software’s most-discussed and beloved games. Its gruesome, gothic world won over legions of fans--and while it hasn’t received a sequel--or a PC port--it does have a great spin-off graphic novel series. Six volumes have been published since its debut in 2018, and the first one will soon be available in premium hardcover format. Bloodborne Vol. 1 Deluxe Edition will be published by Titan Comics on September 2, and preorders are available for $25 at Amazon.
Heads up: Amazon is currently running a B1G1 50% off promotion, and it includes the paperback edition of Volume 1 in the Bloodborne: Vol. 1-3 Slipcase Set for $28 (was $50). You could pair it with Dark Souls: The Complete Collection, which is discounted to $24 (was $35), and save an additional $12. This promotion is likely to end after June 14.

If you're interested in Bloodborne comics, chances are you'd enjoy the Dark Souls adaptation, too. The Dark Souls: The Complete Collection is the best place to start, as this 384-page omnibus comes with the first four volumes in the series and a short story anthology. The only volume not included is The Willow King, which was published last September. There's also a slipcase set with the first three volumes, but it doesn't come with the prequel or anthology.
A Dark Souls manga series debuted last summer and will get its second volume in July.
From Software's latest hit, Elden Ring, doesn't have a graphic novel adaptation, but you can spend more time in the Lands Between by reading The Road to the Erdtree manga. The manga is a comedy, so it's significantly different in tone compared to the game. Five volumes have been published by Yen Press since its 2023 debut, and two more are slated to release before the end of the year.
Yen Press also published a self-contained manga based on Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. Dubbed Sekiro Side Story: Hanbei the Undying, the 144-page manga takes place before the events of the game.
