Demon's Souls

An action RPG about a wanderer fighting through five fractured worlds to reach a sleeping demon king.

FromSoftware · 25–40 hrs

Difficulty

The game that set the Souls pattern: limited healing, a hub of other players' bloodstains, and levels that stay dangerous after you learn them.

Tips

  • Start here

    World tendency is a dial

    Dying in human form shifts a world toward black and makes it harder. If you are learning a stage, play in soul form.

  • Bosses

    Each archstone is a different kit

    Boletaria wants a shield. The Valley of Defilement wants a weapon that reaches. Do not take one build through all five in a row on a first file.
