Demon’s Souls Servers Shutting Down Next Month

Atlus has today confirmed that Demon’s Souls will see its servers shut down for good next month.

“With Demon’s Souls, gamers received a title of breathtaking scope and vision, a project built on experimental cooperative and competitive multiplayer concepts, offering users both direct and indirect methods of communication and interaction,” says a press release.

“It was of the utmost importance for us to sustain the game’s online experience as long as possible, even beyond the point at which sales could help to offset the expense. Regrettably, the online servers cannot be sustained forever and now the end draws near.”

I never finished the game, it was too hard. I’m too soft.

But I dealt with that Demon a long time ago.

  1. Hmm, this one has been sitting in my ‘still to play’ pile for a while. I guess it just got bumped to the front if some sections are going to be ‘impossible’ without help :P

  2. Aw, heck. I’ll never finish this now.

  3. Must get this game. Never got round to it.

  4. Ah i’m happy I finally got round to playing this game properly last week (Just killed penetrator) but i’m lucky the servers have been up this long, without some of the hints I would’ve died a ton more times.
