Yep, it's happening. They're remaking Demon's Souls. It's a PlayStation 5 exclusive developed by Bluepoint Games in partnership with Japan Studio, just as the rumours have been saying for months now. The game got an announcement trailer during Sony's PS5 reveal showcase, in which the title's opening is remade.
Demon's Souls on PS5 has been rebuilt from the ground up. The game's official description reads: "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." It doesn't have a release date yet, so we assume that it isn't a PS5 launch title.
Is this what you were hoping to see? Hold onto your souls in the comments section below.

My body is so ready!
I am glad that I was wrong. Never experienced Demon Souls due to being it a ps3 exclusive. Now they're is no excuse
And it looks amazing. I'm glad so many people will get to play a shiny new version of one of my favourite games of all time.
The one who started it all...Glad to be given another try
Still can't get past the second level on PS3, lets see if i can on PS5!
I can't wait! My favorite series!
Looks lovely
Choosing between looks or framerate?
Can't we have both on next gen?? 🤔
Hoping for a Dragon God revamp lol
I shall await thine return, slayer of Demons. I am here for thee and thee only. (The Maiden in Black)
SOON THE WAIT IS OVER!
This will be my first go at demon souls but I am excited.
Looks SO good!!
@pimpjuice this is it. You time to shine!
You told everyone! Shout it out!
So excited! Take all the time you need Bluepoint, polish that masterpiece!
This sold me the PS5 hands down breathtaking! Thank you so much Sony I felt childlike delight watching this reveal
Hell yeah. Will be good to finally play it and complete the series!
I dont think a remake of a PS3 game is the way to get people excited for a new console. Hard pass for me.
Probably the game will have a collectors edition which I will buy (I also have the PS3 collector's). And in order to play the disk I will have to buy the expensive ps5. That's how you sell consoles! Well done Sony!
This is awesome but I still think it's kind of niche. There is going to be a lot of salty gamers who buy it and quit after like 3 hours as it's very tough
I knew this was real. Looks pretty cool. I hope they keep everything, including the world tendencies.
Hi there fellow gamers. The game that put the souls series on the map and the game that made me fear every little enemy and every thing in a game. And I loved it. Bluepoint has done it again. After the amazing Shadow of the Colossus, they decided to have a go on this mega project. And HOLY MOLY, that LOOKS GOOD. The Skeleton warriors, the Reaper and that Dragon God...... My BODY is so READY for this. The only thing that could beat this would be Boodborne 2 anoucement. But that would be to much for my heart to handle. Cheers and happy gaming to us all.
@koaeinferno A LOT of people were hoping for this and especially me so no it is a great way to get excited for the PS5
@koaeinferno Well you're wrong I'm afraid.
@zimbogamer it probably won't be as hard now with revamped gameplay, it'll be a lot smoother and people have a lot more experience with the genre now too.
@Collette yeah, that's one of my fears too, Demon's souls was deep with atmosphere, I hope they haven't ruined that.
@Cloud39472 well I guess why have backwards compatiblility with old consoles, when you can sell the games at $60 again.
@koaeinferno I would understand what you're saying if it was really just demons souls released exactly how it was on Ps3. But its not, its completely remade from the ground up, there were plenty of games announced, turn your attention to those if you're unhappy with this announcement.
Nice, I hope just like tlou2 there's different difficulty that we can choose, I want to play it on normal difficulty and normal checkpoint/save system. Let souls users play it with "legacy" difficulty or whatever.
Was there a date listed for this anywhere? I don’t think I even saw a 2021.
@Tharsman No release date was shared. This is a game still knee deep in development.
I've never played the original Demon's Souls before, so sign me up for this beautiful remake!
