These are some of the most promising upcoming Souls-like games to look forward to in mid/late 2023 and beyond.
Hollow Knight: Silksong is scheduled to appear at the upcoming Xbox Games Showcase in June, 2025, based on a new rumor.
The upcoming Overture DLC for Lies of P sounds like a game unto itself, not unlike FromSoftware’s recent massive Elden Ring add-on.
So excited for this. Lies of P is in my top 3 souls games and that is including games made by FromSoft
Elden Ring
Dark Souls 3
Lies of P
Bloodborne
Keep telling myself I’m gonna go back and grab the platinum in Lies of P before the DLC but there are an unreasonable amount of incredible games releasing this year lol
I really enjoyed going for the Lies of P platinum. It felt like less of a grind than most of the FromSoft Soulsbourne games. Highly recommend it.
But yes, too many great games for sure!
I unfortunately accidentally missed the last step for one of the quest lines for the last gold record I need and it was right near the end of the game.. so I will have to do a third playthrough and I’m procrastinating it but hope to do it again before the DLC lol
omg me too i loved the game so mjch. the lore is incredible.
and yes, this yea ris nuts in terms of mew stuff ha
Played pretty much all the big souls games out there and ”all” from soft titles but didn’t enjoy the demo of lies of P. Does the game get a lot better (mostly environment wise)?
definitely
but u better check out some gameplay videos and convince yourself. especially if the demo didnt convince you outright
After a magnificent 20-year tenure with Sony Interactive Entertainment, Phil Rosenberg, SVP of Global Partner Development and Relations, recently announced that he is bidding adieu at the end of 2025. Phil has been a stalwart and integral part of growing the PlayStation brand and, along with this team, has worked tirelessly over the years to ensure all gamers enjoy a vibrant experience on a variety of PlayStation products.
It's pure speculation on behalf of the author of this opinion piece and it hold no weight at all.
@lukasmain
Im curious how you can make that comment when he specifically mentions Blackmyth? No weight at all? Either...
A. You can't read
B. You're letting blind loyalty take point
C. You just didn't read it
D. You're trolling
He never suggested a special exclusivity deal. Far from it. The author is just speculating.
@Main I quoted Rosenberg at the bottom he said it himself on the interview that him and guys go out and find hidden gems. This interview wouldn't mean much but Black Myth was supposed to release simultaneously along with the Xbox version unfortunately, it didn't. Got taken off and GS said it was the S. MS said there was a deal in place. If he's going out and finding niche or "hidden gems" BMW should of released only on PS5 since its considered a hidden gem that could only be played on PS console just like the rest of the other games he mentioned. The game was announced awhile ago as a multiplat. The S of late has been holding its own with third party and 1st party games. It's also clear that the S did have issues for awhile also and maybe GS really can't optimize for the console. I'm just exploring every possibility.
Hmm, I dunno at the end of the day. The S has been performing well optimization wise lately. I dunno it's hard to tell anymore what's, what.
There is no way in high hell Sony would pay money for this, something so successful and not advertise it as an exclusive console game. There's just no way, they've done it for everything else, why would they not do it for this.
It's people who can't let a story go, there's no deal, they just probably supported a new Chinese studio with their China Hero Project and give them tools to help develop on their console. If Microsoft came along and offered them the same tools early on for their console I'm sure Sony wouldn't bat an eyelid.
Sony took a chance on a new studio early on and they benefitted from it, that's their reward.

The fact there are 7 souls like games releasing is depressing af
Flintlock and Enotria both look good, especially the former. I've often fancied a Souls like set in a thriving and vibrant world to make a change from the depressing, decaying (albeit cool) environments that From conjure up.
Can't wait for Blasphemous 2, first game was excellent just needed a little polish on the gameplay side which presumably the sequel will have.
I don't typically get overly hyped for games nowadays, but I'm really, really looking forward to Lies of P.
>No Remnant
Trash list.
I see “Souls like” and all I think is how frustrating the controls will be and how little these games will respect my time. The “Souls like” mechanics in “Jedi Fallen Order” and “Returnal” left a bad taste in my mouth.
