In the Demon's Souls remake, players will once again traverse the foggy, dark fantasy landscape of Boletaria as a warrior who must defeat horrifying creatures, master combat skills, banish an ancient demon called The Old One, and earn the title 'Slayer of Demons.' One of the most effective skills the warrior will have at their disposal is the ability to parry. Demon's Souls gave rise to the entire Souls-like subgenre, with punishing combat that requires players to become proficient at parrying blows in order to stay alive.
The Demon's Souls remake was one of the most highly anticipated games coming to the PlayStation 5.
