Demon's Souls Remake. The best new games on PlayStation 5

Table of Contents

  1. Release: 12 November 2020
  2. Developer: Bluepoint Games
  3. Genre: action RPG

The remake of Demon's Souls is, in addition to Astro's Playroom, the first real-life exclusive title available on PlayStation 5. Others either have their versions for competitive platforms, or the PS4 (which is the case with Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Sackboy: A Big Adventure). So, exclusivity for new Sony gear (which usually guarantees good quality) makes Demon's Souls a game worthy of interest of every PS5 owner. However, there's a catch...

We are dealing with a kind of introduction to the famous Dark Souls series. It's a dark-fantasy game famous mainly for its high level of difficulty, and it's no different in Demon's Souls. Although there are more accessible moments here, especially when we can play co-op, there is still a lot of very hard duels with powerful opponents. Fortunately, the power of PlayStation 5 has not only made it possible to improve this production visually.Thanks to the famous SSD speed, it takes less than five seconds to get back to play after each death, which gives us incomparably more comfort and does not generate extra frustration.

Combat is also much smoother thanks to the game's 60 frames per second (optional) and even with slightly lowered details that allow to achieve this, it still looks beautiful. The creators preserve almost all the original elements – they only added some new weapons and items . Demon's Souls is an obvious proposition for fans of the original, but new people should also give a chance to Demon's Souls, because now it's probably the best game on PS5 so far.
