    This game is probably my favorite souls game now! The game is so good looking, especially in contrast to other souls games, and the gameplay is the fun souls gameplay I have come to love!

    Undeniable quality from Bluepoint games. The graphics are amazing, gameplay is difficult but spot on with controlling, fun in it's own way with how genuinely rewarding it is.

    This is an amazing remake. Bluepoint has done the game justice. The visuals and the animations are top notch. This is the main reason I bought a PS5 and am %100 glad I did. Thank you Sony and Bluepoint for bring back one of the best games ever made.

    Absolutely wonderful remake of the PS3 classic. People who love souls like games will really love it. Same core gameplay mechanics as the original with some tweaks, gorgeous graphics, 60fps buttery smooth gameplay, great soundtrack. It's an astonishingly beautiful and a true next gen game. Kudos to Bluepoint games for creating this beautiful remake.

    Welcome to real next gen! Stunnig visuals ans superb graphic makes Demon's souls ps5's graphical benchmark. Playing one of the best RPG games of history in this graphic and dual sense controller is fantastic. I donno how to express my feeling. You should play it yourself and see why true next gen begins with demons souls remake

    No tiene Ray tracing, no tiene 4k nativos, anda perfectamente los 60 fps y gráficamente no se ve tan como lo esperábamos, es lamentable que se utilizará para abrir una nueva generación, al contrario de la competencia que no tenía nada pero no la kgaron como lo hicimos aquí.

    Amazing and gorgeous game. 60FPS mode just makes gameplay so silky smooth. Graphics are on another level and I’m loving the story so far. 10/10 for me.

    It’s exactly the same game as the original except it’s gorgeous. They even kept the rag doll physics. The haptic feedback makes the combat feel meatier. The game holds up after 11 years too.

    It’s a perfect remake and I think the only people who might be disappointed with it are… the die-hard FromSoftware fans. You see, the new Demon’s Souls shows clearly how much Miyazaki’s games have evolved throughout the years. The Dark Souls series simply does everything better. The remake looks like a prototype in comparison, while still being way ahead of other developers’ achievements in this genre. [01/2021, p.46]

    Overall, Demon’s Souls is still the most interesting and varied game in the Souls series. This remake not only looks lovely on the PlayStation 5 but is also a joy to play with all the tweaks and improvements that have been introduced. Now if only people would look past its supposed difficulty and see its carefully crafted intricacy instead.

    I went in expecting the world out of the Demon’s Souls remake and it delivered me the galaxy. I don’t normally speak this highly of games, but this is the one exception. Absolutely every facet of the original has been enhanced and it has stood the test of time. Bluepoint has done an incredible job at not only reinvigorating an underappreciated gem, but also leveraging the new technologies afforded to them with Sony’s new system. While there are a couple of minor technical blemishes, they don’t take away from how good of an experience this game is and Bluepoint’s diligence as a developer will surely see these kinks ironed out. This game is a system seller.
