The Demon's Souls remake on PS5 may not have the long rumoured sixth Archstone, but according to developer Bluepoint Games, it'll still feature new bits and pieces. Speaking to Polygon, creative director Gavin Moore says: "There’s a lot of new content that we’ve added to the game and for fans to find and enjoy."
Moore continues: "And there are lots of things that I think fans are going to go, ‘Oh, that’s amazing. Great. You know, I didn’t know they put that in the game.'" He concludes: "I’m not going to tell you any more than that, because [I don’t want] to spoil anything."
While we're certainly not expecting anything huge, like brand new locations or enemies, it does sound like Bluepoint has managed to bring a little spice to FromSoftware's classic. It'll be interesting to see how quickly players sniff out all of this new stuff.

They also confirmed that fractured mode is a mirrored world. Which I can't wait to try out. It was a legit game changer in Shadow of the Colossus, and I'm so excited to try it in Demon's Souls.
Cannot wait to play Demon Souls on the PlayStation 5.
Not watching anymore videos on this. Going in blind for Nov 19th. I want to be wowed just like I was at original launch.
There was a website in Asia (?) that briefly listed a PS4 version of Demon's Souls. It might have been a mixup, or maybe they're planning to eventually tap the huge PS4 market. It would be a fascinating port, I'd love to see it.
I love all these Demon’s Souls news! I still can’t believe that they are giving us a remake for ps5. Great times to be a gamer! And it looks gorgeous!
@GamerDad66 I'd almost expect it at this point given Sony's mismanagement of the next gen transition. Especially since it's coming to PC and even after they changed the wording, it actually implied it was coming to more than PC as well.

I think that was for the Demons Souls soundtrack that's being released, and something got lost in the translation.
@Enuo
This part is what they talking about!
A perfect backstab you say? As opposed to just a regular one
The grains sound like game changers. Not needing to put on tearstone rings or equip special items to increase resistance will be nice. Hopefully this means less meta use on NG+ for bosses like Flamelurker!
Not gonna lie, I was years late when I played Demon's Souls (and even then, I wasn't able to finish it due to how dated it felt compared to recent souls games around that time) so I will not see what's going to be new but I'm still excited since I'll be able to play more than the original
I think I will keep these news a secret as best as I can from my brother. But I know he will find out someday, he is just too excited for this game!
