It’s been a long time coming, but UK and European gamers are finally going to be able to get their hands on PS3 exclusive Demon’s Souls.
The hardcore action RPG has been available in the rest of the world for months, but until now there had been no official word on the game releasing outside of Japan and North America.
Namco Bandai will release a special European limited edition retail pack on June 25, containing a soundtrack CD, a new artbook and a brand new strategy guide.
“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.”
Demon’s Souls offers unprecedented depth, brutal difficulty and the ability to team up with other players. It has been received incredibly well in the US, earning high review scores and game of the year 2009 awards.
