Demon’s Souls får svenskt releasedatum

Många av er har importerat eller köpt den amerikanska utgåvan av Demon’s Souls i tron om att spelet aldrig ska dyka upp på våra breddgrader, men precis som det har ryktas om under de senaste dagarna så har Namco Bandai bekräftat att man ska släppa liret här i Europa.
Datumet vi ska hålla koll på är den 25 juni, och ifall vi har lite flyt kanske vi också får den begränsade upplagan även här i Sverige. Innehållet ska bestå av soundtracket på en cd-skiva, strategiguide (som verkligen behövs med tanke på svårighetsgraden – kolla bara diskussionerna på vårt forum!) och en bok med konceptteckningar.

Jag kommer nog att undvika detta spel i och med den enormt höga svårighetsgraden, vilket gör att jag skulle behöva lägga mer tid än vanligt på ett lir. Men det är inte helt omöjligt att jag i framtiden i alla fall testar det för att se vad det snackas om.

- The soundtrack CD
- A new artbook

“We’re very pleased to be working with SCEI to bring the fantastic Demon’s Souls to gamers outside of Japan and North America,” said Olivier Comte, VP Marketing, Sales & Publishing NAMCO BANDAI Partners S.A.S. “The game is exactly the kind of quality experience with which we are continuing to grow the NAMCO BANDAI Games portfolio of titles, and we will be working hard to ensure it’s at least as much of a success in our markets as it has already proven to be elsewhere.”
Beautiful, compelling, and unforgiving, Demon’s Souls is one of the hardcore RPG experience PS3 owners have been waiting for since the platform’s launch.
Revolutionary online features support your adventure like never before, presenting seamless interconnectivity that serves in every instance to enhance the single-player game. Team up with other players in simultaneous cooperative play, working together to topple some of the game’s colossal bosses, or force your way into the games of skilled players and challenge them to PvP battle.
Leave hints and clues for those who will follow in your footsteps; either intentionally or through your own inadvertent demise, your bloodstains will allow your successors to view a replay of your death, hinting at how to avoid your gruesome fate. Unprecedented in its depth and subtlety, peerless in its relentlessly challenging gameplay, Demon’s Souls is the ultimate action RPG.
UK website Eurogamer.net awarded the title a resounding 9 out of 10 – “absolutely compelling; dark, detailed, unforgiving, creatively cruel,” and adding, “You can learn to love Demon’s Souls like few other games in the world.”
Gamespot awarded the game ‘Game of the Year 2009’ – “Brutally challenging and utterly engrossing, this innovative role-playing game is one of the year’s best.”
