Demon's Souls is a 2020 action role-playing game developed by Japan Studio and Bluepoint Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 5. The game was released as a launch title for the PlayStation 5 in November. It is a remake of Demon's Souls, originally developed by FromSoftware for the PlayStation 3 in 2009. Japan Studio's Internal Development Department led development on the remake, which makes Demon’s Souls its last game before its integration into Team Asobi; it was also Bluepoint's final game before its shutdown in 2026. Demon's Souls received critical acclaim, with critics praising its gameplay, visuals, technical aspects, and improvements over the original game. It has sold 1.857 million copies as of 2022.
