Demon's Souls

Dark Souls, the sequel to Demon's Souls, has been announced by the game's developer From Software. Demon's Souls was somewhat of a cult-classic PS3 exclusive from 2009. Dark Souls is expected to launch worldwide on the Xbox 360 and PS3 by the end of the year. It will remain a PS3 exclusive in Japan. Going multiplatform isn't the only change for the series, this time around Namco Bandai will be publishing it in the USA, Atlus published Demon's Souls.  Keep reading for more details.

The current issue of Famitsu confirmed the game codenamed Project Dark is actually Dark Souls. Like Demon's Souls, Dark Souls is expected to have a similar level of character customization and freedom to explore at your own pace. Plus you can interact with the entire  world; it will be seamless, if you can see it you can explore it. The article denied the two games would share any story connections. Co-op and online features have also been confirmed.

Fans of Demon's Souls changeling style of gameplay can rest assured Dark Souls will be just as hard and just as rewarding. How many hours of your life do you plan on devoting to Dark Souls?

    Co-op. Now I can smash my controllers with friends online! Nice!
    Seriously can't wait for this game. I like how they called it Dark Souls as well. Demon's Souls 2 would have sounded kind of weird, and this way it doesn't feel like a 'second' game. Maybe more people will consider it, which means more people online to smash controllers with!

    As excited as I am for a sequel to one of my favorite games of all time, I am a little worried about namco publishing it. Do any of u think if will affect what made Demon's Souls great in the first place?

    I think this can equate as fair trade for Mass Effect 2.
    I think it's awesome that 360 players will be able this. Demon's Souls was amazing, and now more people will get to experience an even more awesome game (even if it tends to border on masochism at times)

    Ugh, stop giving 360 niche RPG titles that nobody is going to buy, your desired market is and has always been on PS3.

    Either we're going to have to wait longer to own it because of the multiplatform development (Like FF13) or it'll be cut in some way so it wont be on multiple discs on 360.

    Theres a reason its a PS3 exclusive in japan, stop trying to capitalize on a dry market here in the states and follow japan's lead for a change.

    too bad its on the 360...
    because that means the game is going to be downgraded to the 360 standards:(

    Demon souls is the best RPG ever made. Lets just hope this new title "if" even close to the epic greatness of demon souls can even at least do half as good will get better recognition this time around by x-plays staff. As far as how many hours i plan to invest, well that depends on how great it will be but like i said if its even half as good as demon souls then hundreds of hours im sure.

    Every time i read something about Demon's Souls my heart pumps faster, and I feel what I can only describe as pure joy. I never thought I would love anything as much as I love this game. Bring on Dark Souls!!
