How to play the Original Demon's Souls
Demon's Souls is an iconic game. It was the first Souls game and paved the way for games like Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro. Figuring out how to play it so many years later can be difficult because most people don't have a PS3 anymore, much less a copy of the game. Here's a few solutions:
Demon's Souls on PS3
- Get a PS3
- Hook it up
- Get a copy of Demon's Souls
- Pop it in
- Optional - Set up the Private Server for online play
- Bada Bing. All done.
