Rumor: New info about Destiny of Spirits – PS4 exclusive by From Software

Here’s some potential new information about Destiny of Spirits by From software. Open world game, PS4 exclusive, PlayStation Vita Remote Play functionality and more.

[MrSwankSinatra]

the nexus??? am i sensing a demon's souls successor. i hope so.....

[garos82]

if true this could potentially be massive.

now touch thy demon inside me!

[b163o1]

Demon's souls successor would be great, I'd second that.

Let the exclusives begin??

[Freak of Nature]

Dark soul's 2 and now a Demon's soul's successor?

And with the full power of the PS4 built from the ground up, all the ambition this studio has shown with the PS3 and now with all this extra horsepower and higher ceiling to create with, makes this quite intriguing...

Miyazaki's new game?

This sounds more like an evolution of the series.

[abzdine]

PS4 is getting all kiiindzzzzz of love from devs and publishers.

[ZodTheRipper]

Demon's Souls successor would be beyond massive, I wouldn't have thought that this could happen anytime soon since they seemed to focus on Dark Souls ...please let this be true!

[miyamoto]

Another Demon's Souls in the making....

[Blastoise]

If this knews is true will it will make my year!

Please be true...Im already super hyped lol

[Kevin ButIer]

Great news, this guys are genius on this kinds on games, yes... nexus is the key word

[JoySticksFTW]

I don't buy Day 1 too often.

But if this is a Demon's Souls successor by Miyazaki then

Day F'n One!

Umbassa

[BISHOP-BRASIL]

Also:

Demons's Souls = DS
Dark Souls = DS
Destiny of Spirits = DS

Yes, I'm probably reading too much into it... Simply cause I want this to be true. The more Demon's/Dark Souls, the better.

[thechosenone]

man...they got the info from this pic. I found it over at the sony conference thread on gaf.

[starchild]

Demon's souls sequel would be cool. But I wish so bad From Software would do another Tenchu game or something like it. I know Acquire has the rights to the IP now, but From Software could do something in the same vein.

[ThanatosDMC]

I would prefer that semi open world they introduced with Dark Souls. I like the traveling... though i want the enemies to level up with me because they become a joke afterwards.

[PeaSFor]

insert the "sticky white stuff" joke here

[tubers]

"now touch thy demon inside me!"

*sounds kinky*
*will bite*

[TomOfAllTrades]

If that were true, tears of joy would stream from my eyes O_O

[PeaSFor]

joy would would also manifest into my pants.

[nthstew]

can this be true... spirits generally means souls so my guess is demon souls 2..
pls pls pls...........

[HammadTheBeast]

• Embark on a crusade through the twisted wastes of the Empyrean, an open world like no other

• Battle monstrous gods and their minions in challenging, skill-driven combat

• Play cooperatively online with up to three other companions, or haunt the worlds of strangers

• Gather materials, build weapons and items from scratch, and customize your gear

• Designed from the ground up for the next-generation PlayStation 4 console

• Take the Empyrean anywhere with PlayStation Vita Remote Play functionality

Sounds pretty much exactly like Demons Souls 2.

[Rhaigun]

With co-op!!!!!!!!!

[MoveTheGlow]

With co-op? Is this a new Souls and a Monster Hunter killer all in one?

[RedHawkX]

the real demon souls 2!

[Cam977]

I preferred DES to DaS. Don't get me wrong, DaS is incredible as I'm on it now but DeS was simply better. I hope it's a DeS successor!

[showtimefolks]

Very excited

Possible successor to demon soul an epic win Sony if you do this

But please give more info or show last guardian, I been waiting for that ga,e forever lol

[kingmushroom]

I would freak out !

[KwietStorm_BLM]

An open world Demon's Souls would be better than breakfast in bed

[RedHawkX]

that seals the deal im getting 4 ps4's i hope the rest of you guys preorder or you wont get one for a few years lol.

[yeahokchief]

Oh god. I just saw the words FROM SOFTWARE, PS4 and EXCLUSIVE all in the same sentence...

Well, I don't know about you guys, but i'm just goign to be here hitting the refresh button on the preorder page until it goes online.

[TopDudeMan]

Dammit! I didn't want to have to buy a PS4 so soon next gen, but I guess I'm gonna have to.

[Sharius]

"I shall await thine return, slayer of Demons. I am here for thee and thee only"

[a_bro]

Umbassa.

[Der_Kommandant]

I read that with her voice

[xXBlondieVanHarlowXx]

"Soul of the lost, key to life's ether..
Soul of the lost withdrawn from it's vessel.
Let strength be granted so the world might be mended,

so the world might be mended." <------ Goosebumps.

Every time. Admit it >:(
I don't think i would handle a Demon Souls 2 announcement very well. I would pass out,,, out of sheer joy. Please let it be Demon Souls 2. T-T

[Booyah]

Good ol'memories !

[Kos-Mos]

I have that quote as my ringtone. I`m probably crazy, but I feel so warm inside when I hear it.

[Skizelli]

It's "Soul of the mind, key to life's ether." ;)

[sherimae2413]

lol, i knew this news would pop up in here, anyways a bit of info for you guys!

according to neogaf this rumor came from 4chan,
a very unreliable source....
as far as i remember they are also the one who rumored about
"DESTINY of spirits" by bungie, Which was debunked, lol

second, destiny of spirits is trademarked by sony of america on february as for
"computer game software for handheld gaming devices"

so dont get your hopes up ^_^

[Silly gameAr]

Why are you so happy about crushing our dreams? :( You're a monster.

[sherimae2413]

sorry, its for the better :p

it would be more crushing if you build up your hype and expectations to 100% and then suddenly its not the one that you expect ^_^

so i better crush your dreams now while its still not getting a momentum :p

[Why o why]

Thank you, my feet are back on the ground...dammit

Silver lining is that there are more exclusives on route. I don't feel so bad for mentioning that word now as it was almost taboo to express a desire for them up until the magic 15 made it kool again o_0

[gamertk421]

Hahaha!

[dc1]

I followed the same thing on GAF early this morning.... however I did not want to bring the news here (...because I'm still holding onto hope!)

[TomOfAllTrades]

Well let's just wait and see ^_^

[r21]

Actually this new info doesnt have anything connected with Bungie's Destiny. This one is making it seem this new game will be open world successor to Demon's Souls for the ps4.

[sherimae2413]

but i have one thing to clarify with you

4chan rumored last month the name "destiny of spirits"
as a spinoff of DESTINY the bungie game for ps vita,
but was debunked the other day

and now 4chan rumored again this title as demon souls successor which according neogaf the trademark is literally fake

now i would ask you woul you believe a rumor that always associated with 4chan,
they have lots of rumors in the past that got debunked

@xaphy

last month many people here doesnt believe me when i say that panopticon trailer for sony is a vita game that was trademarked in japan, but instead they believe themselves that its a ps4 game

look how it ended, it became freedom wars a vita exclusive

so again dont get your hopes up guys

[Xaphy]

so for vita?

[jon1234]

remote play, so techniquely yes

[ZoyosJD]

You could still count me in for a Demons Souls style game for vita.

If it is for PS4 and XB1, I could care less about if it is exclusive or not, MS already signed their death warrant with that 24 hr. online BS.

[r21]

Yes, you're right bout that 4chan info however, the trademark thing is real. Sony did trademark the name "Destiny of Spirits", shown from this link here: http://www.gameinformer.com...

So any info of this being related to Bungie's Destiny game is obviously false. This new information on this article could also be false too seeing as the author doesnt state who or what the source is.

Im still hoping this DoS is a vita exclusive though.

[Hellsvacancy]

"Im still hoping this DoS is a vita exclusive though"

Im not because I want to play it, on my PS4!!!

[porkChop]

Yeah I'm pretty sure this game is for Vita, not PS4. It could still be a Demon's Souls successor though, which would be nice.

[Tony-Red-Grave]

all my feels are right here >"."< thank you for crushing them.... coulda been worse

[elhebbo16]

demon souls 2?

[Foxgod]

Well, and exclusive from them is bound to happen sooner or later, they dont develop for Xbox.

[Sevir]

They supported the 360 with both Ninja Blade and Enchanted Arm. and countless other multiplat games

[Shadowsteal]

Enchanted Arms was on PS3 as well.

[Sevir]

but enchanted Arms came first to the 360...

[PirateThom]

They made Dark Souls. There's a rumour Dark Souls II has exclusive content on 360.

[Foxgod]

Wow, i was wrong, and i got nothing but agree's, and they say n4g isnt full of sony fanboys.....

[Why o why]

@ foxgod. .....LMAO...

You feel N4g is full of sony fans because there are more of us now than there were in 07. As all the fud over the years started to dissipate, the fud flingers started to disperse in their droves.. n4g has gone full circle.

No games, foreman grill, psn crap, losing exclusives,no tripple a, the salez, multiplats inferior...ahh, I remember the days

[b3ast]

And that sucks if true I don't wanna buy for XBlive just to play it on 360 instead of ps3

[OrangePowerz]

Hmmm Spirit, it`s just another word for Soul :)

[HarryMasonHerpderp]

I'm guessing this is fake.
Sounds too good to be true.
I really hope I'm wrong though because this could be awesome.

[sherimae2413]

it is fake, like what you have said "its too good to be true"

here is another tip:
neogaf user, famousmortimer a reliable insider in gaf says that this is a fake,
another gaffer forgot her name, this rumor came from 4chan

and in japan this title is trademarked by sony along the category of titles such as "freedom wars, YU-NAMA, and why did i do to deserve this my lord" which implies in handheld games categories

so take this rumor, with a grain of salt

[b3ast]

That would be be a dream come true but i doubt it ;( - please surprise me SONY N FROM SOFTWARE

[GrumpyOla]

I seriously doubt it would be Demon's Souls. Wouldn't make sense especially with Dark Souls 2 coming out next year. Unless it is slated for holiday 2015 release. With Darks souls 1, time between announcemnet and release date was roughly 7 months if I recall correctly.

[Tatsuya]

This sounds too good to be true. More exclusives for PS4 is a welcome thing though!

[strigoi814]

Nice

[r21]

Very cool stuff if true. No source mentioned in the article so I'll be cautiously optimistic for this game seeing as we finally got an exclusive to cover the RPG genre for the ps4.

I will admit, if this info is at all true, this will kill some of my hype for Destiny of Spirits. I really wanted it to be a new vita exclusive :C

[mrmancs]

This could be the title blowing people away who have seen it like Keighley and a Sony employee who have hinted at it... We shall see...

[kasser]

Am I the only one who dreams of a proper next-gen Tenchu :( I really really hope Sony & From Software resurrect the series again on CONSOLE.

"Electronic game software for handheld electronic devices"

Yup. Vita game.

[Veneno]

How does anyone get PS4 out of that kind of classification? Must be some very wishful thinking lol.

[cleft5]

OH MY GOD IT SOUNDS LIKE A DEMON'S SOULS SEQUEL!!!!!! I am so buying the fuck out of the PS4 if this is confirmed.

[Mister_G]

Is this the project Hidetaka Miyazaki is working on? Hope so :)

[GraveLord]

Demon's Souls: Destiny of Spirits

[morgenpimm]

let's hope sony doen't neglect this like it neglected demon's souls and have namco bandai come up and make multiplat.

[Ashunderfire86]

Demon's Souls:Destiny of Spirits, quoted by GraveLord, and Dark Souls 2 for the win(WTF). I am going to get both of them on PS3 and PS4 day one buy!!!

[DemonSlayer420]

This seals the deal right here, Demon's Souls Sequel:

Play cooperatively online with up to three other companions, or haunt the worlds of strangers. Sounds like Demon's Souls to me!

[PANTHER1030]

More Sony's artillery DESTINY OF SPIRITS is definitely a new game

[isarai]

Definitely sounds like a spiritual successor to Demon's souls, but put into a more open world, crafting weapons sounds like a kickass addition, and the coop sounds like a dream come true, cannot wait to see something about this

[MrAnderson]

I do hope it's not exclusive, I wanna play it on my PC

[DrakenSilverwing]

Yeah, i hope there is a "Demon's Souls 2"! gives me a new reason to rework and make my gf's and i cosplays even better!

[Harpers_Ferry]

I don't know if I could handle having both Dark Souls 2 and a Demon's Souls successor.

I don't have the time or appropriate number of body parts. I just can't do it.

[Vanfernal]

UMBASA!

[STEWIE_PLAY_PS4]

Probably alone for PS4 :D

[OSIRUSSS]

Damn you Sony and From!!! I had hoped to wait to get a PS4 due to my back log of great PS3 games i haven't played yet. Now you pull this?LOL

[Veneno]

Dude I know just what you mean. I have a huge list of backlog stuff that I was excited to get to until I got a PS4, but if something like this came to PS4 I would have no choice but to buy instantly.

[sarshelyam]

I had this conversation quite some time ago, but I can pretty much guarantee that the prospect of localizing Demon's Souls, at the time, seemed a risky endeavor at best. Considering Sony owns that property, and the overwhelming success of the localization for DS, it appears they don't wish to let history repeat itself.

Hands down, whatever news I'm looking forward to out of E3 next week...it was THIS that boiled my excitement over the top.

[Tibbers]

Sounds great but don't forget: Not every game by From Software was good.

[Veneno]

But each Souls game was a homerun out of the park.....

[grace321]

Isaac. although Wayne`s comment is incredible... I just bought a great new Citroën 2CV from making $6810 this last month and even more than 10 grand last month. without a question it is the best work Ive ever had. I started this 5 months ago and immediately was earning over $85, per-hour. I use this here great link,, kep2.com

[GamersHeaven]

If this this the sequel or successor to Demon's Souls i'm going to lose it too much epicness for me to handle :D

http://24.media.tumblr.com/...

[jlemdon]

I hope they make Otogi 3 for PS4 just to spite Xbox one

[taijutsu363]

Praise the Sun!

[DivineAssault]

OH F$#& YEAH! bring it on!!! Exclusive too baby! I cant wait to see what M$ has thats going to "KILL" Sony cuz so far, theyve only killed themselves! Even if they had 10 fantastic exclusive launch titles to show, that xbox one has too many damn restrictions.. PS4 all the effin way!!!!

[MikeyDucati1]

Is it me or From Software has been churning out these games. Seems like they plan on taking over the world. No quarrels from me...

[Zancruz]

I used to love From Software.... Till they messed up the mechanics of the Armored Core series, Damn them to hell for AC4 and the rest! I haven't played a good mech game none this generation.... :(

[nypifisel]

Mech games sucks, play Dark Souls instead :>

[Zancruz]

Thanks for your opinion, But I'll pass....

[Run_bare]

the description resembling demon soul. I really this come true.

[BlueTemplar]

Really hoping theres some truth to this, two separate Souls games coming out in the near future would be epic.
