Demon's Souls (Japanese: デモンズソウル, Hepburn: Demonzu Souru) is a 2009 action role-playing game developed by FromSoftware for the PlayStation 3 under the supervision of Japan Studio. Demon's Souls is set in Boletaria, a kingdom consumed by a dark being called the Old One, following its release through the use of forbidden Soul Arts. Players take on the role of a hero brought to Boletaria to kill its fallen king Allant and pacify the Old One.

Online multiplayer allows both player cooperation and world invasions featuring player versus player combat.
