Demon's Souls Is A PS5 Launch Title, And It Will Cost $70

Bluepoint Games’ remake on Demon’s Souls will be a launch title for the PS5 when the next-gen console becomes available on November 12, 2020 in select countries (Nov 19 for the rest of the world) and it will be one of the many next-gen titles that will cost $70.
After the big and rather impressive PlayStation 5 Showcase which revealed the PS5’s price and launch date, PlayStation published a blog post revealing the price tag of all first-party PS5 launch titles, and Demon’s Souls is one of the games that are priced $10 higher than the standard price we are all used to for generations.
It’s inevitable with the cost of games development going up and it’s certainly not the first time since the PS5 versions of NBA 2k21 and Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War are also priced at $70.
In the list of launch titles coming from Sony’s first-party studios, games like Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales is priced at $49.99 alone, but if you opt for the Deluxe Edition that comes with an enhanced version of the original Marvel’s Spirder-Man, the price goes to $69.99.
PS5 exclusive Destruction All Stars, the competitive combat racer is also priced at $69.99 but other launch titles like Sackboy A Big Adventure remains at the standard $59.99, showing that the prices varies depending on the title.
In case you missed it, Sony showed off gameplay footage of the Demon’s Souls remake and it’s easily one of the best looking games shown at the PS5 showcase.
Demon’s Souls will be available exclusively for the PS5 on November 12, 2020.
Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii reuses the Infinite Wealth setting that still feels fresh and exciting for many and is packed with an absurd pirate theme that reminds us that the Yakuza series can go anywhere it wants and still find ways to entertain. Over 10 hours in, Pirate Yakuza is already showing that RGG can still give reason to invest time on their spinoff projects.

A couple of weeks after the launch of anime extraction shooter Synduality: Echo of Ada, Bandai Namco and developer Game Studio revealed that the game’s season 1 update will include a new map called East Amasia, new Requests (quests), gear, and more.
Synduality Echo of Ada has potential, but its flawed economy, tedious grind, and lack of meaningful story incentives make it hard to recommend in its current state. Without drastic improvements, it risks being forgotten before it ever finds a steady audience.
Sony will no longer require PC players to sign up for a PSN account to play any of Sony’s games when they become available on PC. Moving forward, the incentive for having a PSN will be in the form of in-game rewards.
