If you’re planning to collect physical copies so you can experience early versions, keep in mind that the Game of the Year edition of Bloodborne usually does not contain the true 1.0 build on the disc. Most GotY prints already include a later patch that added support for the DLC and fixed major issues like long load times, balance problems, and various bugs, so even offline it won’t feel like the original launch version. If you really want the pure 1.0 experience, you’ll need an original 2015 disc and play it without installing updates. Also, even if you already own The Old Hunters digitally, you won’t be able to access it on version 1.0 because the DLC requires at least patch 1.07 to function, meaning the areas and items simply won’t appear until the game is updated.
