Project Beast: Possible New Souls Game?

'On Friday, screenshots and art leaked via the /v/ board on 4chan and NeoGAF, showing a new game from Japanese studio, From Software. By looking at the screenshots and concept art, they suggest that this Project Beast is the new entry in the Souls franchise for current generation consoles. If the leak is true and it is confirmed to be the new entry in the Souls series, what does this means for the series going forward?'

If it's an PlayStation exclusive, just name it "Demon's Souls 2" for pure nolstalgic, fanservice reasons.

joab7774065d ago (Edited 4065d ago )

It would be more of a stretch to say it isnt a souls game.

You can basically make any type of difficult fantasy game and name it something-souls. And it will hav the name recognition.

And as far as the shotgun, it would be fine, a mid range high powered weapon that only has 2 shots and takes awhile to reload. The way enemies get on you, it would be good for an opening volley. The bigger issue would be rather the enemies have such weapons.

Yeah, I knew this is why the "B" team was on DS2. I just didnt think we would hear about it til next yr.

nucky644065d ago (Edited 4065d ago )

the "B" team isn't on this one - miyazaki and his team (the people who made demon souls) are supposedly on this one....and that is an "A" team to souls fans.

Brazz4065d ago

Demon's Souls is a good name for gamers and i realy like the sound of "demon's Soul", but... there are markets that the name "Demon" will probably make a bad press... it's better to just rename whit something that is cool, but not "problematic as "Demon"...

cool names like... i don't know... maybe, King's soul, Lord's Souls, Soul's Master.
I don't like "Beast's souls", i hope they will not follow the line > "project Dark" - Dark souls (Dark souls very cool! and less problematic than "Demon")

morganfell4065d ago

"...there are markets that the name "Demon" will probably make a bad press"

Guess what? The game market isn't one of them. In what markey was Demons Souls and issue? Show me that link. People that played Demons Souls loved it. People that played Dark Souls wish it was more like Demons Souls. Demons in ther name is just fine but that isn't what we are discussing. People are discussing the possibility of Beasts Souls.

If this is a PS4 exclusive, then I'm finally sold on the system. Nothing on either system so far has grabbed my attention, but From Software always has my undivided attention.

Kyosuke_Sanada4065d ago

The screenshots reminds me of the sequel of Shadow Tower which was one of the understudies of the Soul series. And if what I saw was a shotgun it looks like it will follow the same evolution by including modern weapons with high risk high reward factors.

Nice thought. The beauty of the souks series is that they can do anything. But it would b better to give it a souls name. Maybe Shadow Souls

Xdone4065d ago

Man! This will be an epic exclusive for ps4.

DigitalRaptor4065d ago (Edited 4065d ago )

Can't wait for them to reveal this at E3.

It looks like an evil, withered version of Trico from The Last Guardian, but more dog and less cat/eagle.

Talking of that, I really hope they are ready enough to reveal TLG for PS4 at E3. Those feelings would be beyond expression.

hulk_bash19874065d ago

Demon's Souls is still one of my favorite games of last gen. So if this is in fact a sequel/tie-in, I'm all for it.

I don't play many rpg games
but this game had my attention

Bloodborne: Everything We Know So Far (Release Window, Character Customization, Combat)

E3 marks gaming as one of the industry’s most cherished and heavily watched conventions; promising gamers a glimpse into the future of what’s in store for the upcoming months and even years ahead. Among the announcements was a highly awaited and secretive title by developer From Software dubbed Bloodborne. The game’s working title, Project Beast, leaked a few months ago and the speculation began to mount in the Dark/Demon’s Souls community. This left many pondering if Project Beast was a new Demon’s Souls, Dark Souls or perhaps a completely new intellectual property all together. Well, here it is: the first look at From Software’s Bloodborne and everything we know thus far about the new IP.

DEEBO4029d ago

This is huge considering how good DS was on the ps3 with the online play.

Tony-Red-Grave4029d ago

DS? I hope your not talking about DeS (Demons Souls. I loved demons souls, mainly for offline content and lore, but the online was a MESS with laggy backstabs and grassing 24/7. Maybe for it's time it was good but the online in DeS is terribad for PvP.

Good for Co-op though ut it's make the game too easy.

bahabeast4029d ago

this game look beastly. i love these type of games give me lots to do and ands a challenge to it.

LAWSON724029d ago (Edited 4029d ago )

I want gameplay :(

VsAssassin4029d ago

Character customization? Check.
Online component(s)? Check.
1080 | 30fps? Check.
Buying this game for sure? Check! Check! Check!

disKinected4029d ago

:) Agreed, can't wait to see gameplay.

Kosmacz4029d ago (Edited 4029d ago )

BloodBorne is the only reason I haven't sleep much today. And the Uncharted a bit :-)

Ps. No regrets :-) This is huge, guys.

medman4029d ago (Edited 4029d ago )

@kosmacz
I agreed with you but then I thought about everything we saw...TLOU remastered, No Man's Sky, Far Cry 4, Destiny, GTA V, Batman, The Order:1886, Abzu, Let it Die, MGSV, Mortal Kombat X...I mean, that's quite a bit of quality!!!

cell9894030d ago

The salt really stings when poured directly in the wound, have some mercy

Kingthrash3604030d ago

Fine salt free popcorn it is.

AngelicIceDiamond4030d ago

Trippin? I'm fine I just wanted to see some actual gameplay. That leaked gameplay isn't really enough to be honest.

Doesn't matter though I'm still hyped for the game, can't wait to see more soon.

AngelicIceDiamond4030d ago

To bad its CGI but it looks epic though.

Kingthrash3604030d ago

Whoa...but so was halo5 smh ..also we seen gameplay already through this leaked gifts...why u tripping angel?

DonDon4030d ago

Dude do you think it's still a Souls game? The trailer looked nothing like the older "leaked" trailer. I think the older leaked one was a fake. Maybe a mod of Dark Souls on PC?

I'm kinda dissapointed. I wanted Demons Souls 2

AceBlazer134030d ago

Soooo much excitement right now. Sony did the right thing by staying quiet till now.
