Though Demon’s Souls features director Miyakazi’s favorite boss fight , it is missing artist Timothy Kelly’s sixth Archstone concept of the Twisted City. Soul Arts describes the Twisted City as a place that is warped and bent, with snow and mist shimmering across the landscape. The Twisted City was woven from pre-existing fabric by The Weaver, whose presence is all around the city. Everything there was a twisted version of the City of Giants. In the Twisted City, shadows change everything about the city. Timothy Kelly’s art, as well as the written concept by VaatiVidya, make for a very intriguing storyline that is just the beginning of the "what-ifs" introduced in Soul Ar

Unity's combat may not be its biggest draw, but the historical world certainly will be for those looking for more French-based landscapes to expl

Unless she appears in content from DLC or an Elden Ring sequel , whether the Gloam-Eyed Queen is alive or not will remain unknown along with her true identity. However, there's potential for the Godskins to reclaim the power they once had depending upon which ending is chosen by players, or by FromSoftware in the event of future story content. In endings that restore the Elden Ring, then Destined Death is also restored, since it is only one Rune that joins many in the composition of the titular artifact. Even in endings without the ring being restored, it's likely that Destined Death still returns to the Lands Between to rid the realm of the madness that accompanies immortality, such as with Ranni's Age of Stars Elden Ring Crafting Guide Ring ending , where she creates a new order that is far away from the people over which it will r

If the concepts for never before seen lands and creatures weren’t enough to make FromSoftware __ fans yearn for more, the art competitions for Bloodborne features inspired imaginings. Bloodborne and Sekiro evolved combat from Dark Souls , creating entirely new gameplay experiences that elevated FromSoftware __ into even higher territory. Bloodborne ’s portion of Soul Arts is dedicated entirely to fan imaginings of settings, characters, and gameplay of a sequel to Bloodborne .
