Demon’s Souls announced for PS3 ahead of TGS

Famitsu’s published the first screens and details of From Software’s Demon’s Souls for PS3, as you can see on Gamekyo.

Looks funky. The RPG is presumably one of games Sony said yesterday it was to announce at Tokyo Game Show later this month.

Look at sketchy pictures of magazine pages through the link. Thanks, Blerk.

    There’s a translation of notes on NeoGAF:

    “Yep! Some more info:

    -From Software are huge fans of kings field.

    -Sony Approached From Software to make a game for them.

    -The director thinks it was a great timing when sony asked about the game. He was working on Armored Core game and his company was working on an rpg (Probably Enchanted Arms?). It was a while since they worked on a fantasy game (I think more of an action rpg game).
    -
    From Software gets complete freedom to make the game.

    -They get also lots of help from Sony when they need to.

    -The main character is a From Software like character. They want to have their From Software flavour with the game and characters.

    -The game doesn’t necessary have to look amazing, they are more aiming for a good game with the right balance.

    -You can swap items in realtime? (Not sure about that).

    -They want the game to look very rpg like and it has elements to remind you from older rpgs.

    -They had of like a trial and error with the balance of the game many times.

    -They are not planning on making the game too hard like other action rpg games.

    Ps. I took a quick look at the interview and it’s by no means a 100% accurate information. Sorry if I made a few mistakes.

    If you use it credit goes to RpgN on NeoGAF

    But, I bolded that one part. Is that a joke harkign back to E3 2006 for Sony?

    Says in french that you can make your own character with ’several customisation options’.

    Ooh soundign good from the info on NeoGAF, you can’t play this like a hack and slash, it’s a SARPG.

    Sounds good!

    With Kings field and Monster hunter elements. From think of it as King’s Field, but without the franchise IP basically.
