Demon’s Souls remake will be developed by Bluepoint Games who have proven their mettle with games like Shadow of the Colossus and Metal Gear Solid HD Collection. They have a long history of remastering games and just had recently worked on a remake of Shadow of the Colossus which will be followed by this upcoming game.
The first big news regarding the game is that it has been rated in Korea. It is also rated in Japan. Both of these ratings hint at the launch of the game being a lot closer than expected. This was echoed by former GameInformer editor Imran Khan, who said that the game was targeting the PS5 launch window but he can’t say this is still the case due to the COVID-19 pandemic possibly affecting development.
