Demon's Souls – это action-RPG, римейк одноименной классики, переносящий игроков в мрачный мир Болетарии, охваченный туманом и населенный демонами. Игрокам предстоит взять на себя роль героя, стремящегося остановить распространение зла и освободить королевство от проклятия. Ключевая особенность игры – высокий уровень сложности, требующий от игроков стратегического подхода к каждому бою. Геймплей строится на исследовании локаций, сражениях с разнообразными противниками и боссами, а также сборе экипировки и улучшении характеристик персонажа. Смерть в Demon's Souls – обычное явление, но она не означает конец игры. После гибели игрок возвращается к последнему костру, потеряв все накопленные души, которые можно вернуть, добравшись до места смерти. Игра предлагает глубокую систему прокачки персонажа, позволяющую адаптировать его под свой стиль игры, а также возможность кооперативного прохождения и PvP-сражений.

F2PPS5-exclusive Demon's Souls Remake not only runs on PC now, it's running at twice the fps cap on an RTX 5070 with frame gen It could be smoother but double the frames is nothing to sniff at. As a console gaming interloper, I've been watching the PlayStation 5 emulation scene from afar with some interest. The latest development to catch my eye is that emulation of the Demon's Souls Remake, which has been exclusive to Sony's console since its 2020 launch, can now run at up to 120 fps on PC. Leveraging the very much unofficial KytyPS5 translation layer, YouTuber Geralt Benchmarks shared footage of the remake running on their RTX 5070 and AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D rig.
"We probably need a few more Expedition 33s to just prove them wrong" – the maker of Valor Mortis on why publishers should have faith in AA Polish studio One More Level struggled on after losing its funding, but found a saviour in the form of a film company spin-off Over the past 12 years, Polish studio One More Level has carved out a niche in the world of AA games with projects whose production values often approach those of AAA titles. Its eye-catching 2020 cyberpunk action platformer Ghostrunner launched to critical acclaim and commercial success, selling 5.6 million units according to Video Game Insights estimates, and it was followed by a sequel in 2023. Over the past few years, investment has dried up at the same time as competition has increased, so smaller publishers have tended to prefer betting on games with smaller budgets of $1 million or less, while the big players have gone all in on evergreen titles. But for Valor Mortis, One More Level initially signed up with the indie label Private Division, only for parent Take-Two to begin scaling back the publisher in 2024, with Take-Two head Strauss Zelnick saying that the firm wanted to focus on AAA: "We're in the business of making great big hits." (Private Division's catalogue was sold and the company reemerged as Fictions in 2025; the publisher is behind the recently released Beast of Reincarnation from Pokémon studio Game Freak.) Ratusznik says One More Level was considering self-publishing Valor Mortis after the Private Division deal fell through.
