Over on the official PlayStation Japan Twitter account, somebody pushed out the announcement with an image that indicated Sony was welcoming Demon’s Souls developer Bluepoint Games into the PlayStation Studios fold — not as folks in other regions were being told, Housemarque.

We’ve reached out to Sony for comment on the matter and will update this article as soon as we hear back.
Although the news itself was fairly weighty, everything about the announcement was seemingly by the book — except, that wasn’t the case everywhere.
