Demon’s Souls is officially being remade for PS5

Bluepoint Games and PlayStation Japan Studio have officially announced a Demon’s Souls remake for PlayStation 5.

The game was officially unveiled during a PS5 reveal stream on Thursday.

PlayStation said the remake would “invite players to experience the original brutal challenge, completely rebuilt from the ground up and masterfully enhanced with a new ‘Fractured Mode.’

“In addition to beautiful shadow effects and ray tracing, players can choose between two graphics modes while playing: one focused on fidelity, and one focused on frame rate.”

The Shadow of the Colossus remake studio had previously said it was working on “a big” PlayStation 5 game.

The announcement was made by president Marco Thrush as part of a larger PlayStation 5 article published on Wired last year. “We’re working on a big one right now,” Thrush said. “I’ll let you figure out the rest.”
