Demon’s Souls
A far cry from a simple game, Demon’s Souls doesn’t reward players who are too “frantic”: it’s easy to die on your first attempt—or your hundredth—due to distraction or poor inventory management!!
King Allant rules Boletaria with great wisdom.
One day, however, he decided to use the power of souls to bring prosperity and peace to the kingdom.
At first, this act brought immense benefits to Boletaria, but one day a thick fog covered the land, isolating it from the rest of the world.
Anyone who attempted to pass through the fog vanished without a trace.
However, the brave Vallarfax managed to escape the fog, telling the world how the Old One, awakened by King Allant, had broken free from its prison in the Nexus, sending its soul-hungry demons to hunt down humans.
People deprived of their souls go mad and attack anyone near them.
Driven by the lust for power, many warriors crossed the fog only to disappear into it—everyone except for one, who, killed in the mist, sees their soul transported to the Nexus…
This unfortunate—or fortunate—soul is the character the player controls in Demon’s Souls.
After choosing the hero’s class, the player begins their journey between the Nexus and the areas of Boletaria, now shrouded in fog and madness, hunting the archdemons with the intent of defeating them and imprisoning the Old One back in its prison.
Demon’s Souls in its original PS3 version was one of the most loved—and hated—games for its difficulty. The game received mostly positive reviews from specialized critics and reviewers. According to Famitsū readers, it’s the best game of all time on PlayStation 3.
However, the current remake on PS5 doesn’t have the same impact on players.
