For this reason, we have decided to provide you with some useful tips to start playing, to ensure that you do not find yourself lost in this dark and dangerous universe.


Hoping that the guide will be useful to you, we refer you to our specific section of Demon's Souls, containing several insights on the title.


Before leaving you to the text, we remind you that in the following lines you may find some major or minor spoilers on Demon's Souls, regarding some playful sections and the narrative sector. We therefore advise you to continue carefully before completing the game in its entirety.

1 - Don't play as a human!

Once you die as a human you will be negatively influenced by the tendency system, so make sure you play dead so you don't have any consequences after you die. After each boss you will resume your original form, but you can kill yourself on the nexus to make up for it.

2 - Don't use Boss Souls without thinking about it first

These are for improving some magic and miracles, so be careful not to waste them!

3 - Pay attention to the NPCs

You may need them, so avoid attacking them or you will turn them against them.


4 - Follow the right order of the levels

6 - Improve slowly

At first you will certainly struggle, but the first hours of the game will lead you to improve, take the game with philosophy and advance without haste.


7 - Analyze the enemies

Are they holding a weapon? Are they slow or fast? Try not to use the same strategy with all enemies, and to adapt your potential to have an advantage in any type of fight.

8 - Look around you

The work of Bluepoint Games, perhaps even more so than the original game, hides mountains of secrets, always look around and explore the areas thoroughly to make sure you don't miss them.

9 - Don't feel cowardly

Always try to hit the enemies from behind, as with a backstab you will inflict a lot of damage and you will not risk a counterattack, as you will also stun the unfortunate victim.


10 - Ready for DualSense?

The developer has worked hard to improve the DualSense feedback on Demon's Souls, it can also warn you of imminent dangers, so learn to understand it and use it as a warning sign.
