Demon's Souls is getting a Digital Deluxe Edition with new equipment
Sony Interactive Entertainment and Bluepoint Games have revealed a Digital Deluxe Edition for the upcoming remake of Demon's Souls. Priced at $89.99/€99.99, this edition includes several bonus items for players starting the game. (Note that the base game will be priced at $69.99 as one of several next-gen titles embracing a $10 higher price point.)
Here is the infographic and listing of what is included in the Digital Deluxe Edition.
- Full game

- Boletarian Royalty Armor
- Ritual Blade

- Ring of Longevity
- Preservation Grains
- Phosphorescent Grains

Several of these items do not exist as equippable gear in the original Demon's Souls, and could potentially be new drops from certain enemies. Some items, like the Ring of Longevity, are also new and we do not know what bonuses it offers.
In addition to the Deluxe Edition, a Reaper Scythe weapon is available to those who pre-order the game. According to PlayStation Blog, this scythe was "once wielded by sorcerers who commanded the spirits of the dead. The Reaper Scythe is a pole weapon with a curved blade on one end that is so sharp that they say it can sever your soul from your body. It can mow down many targets in a single blow, but is difficult to handle and requires both strength and dexterity to use."
Demon's Souls is a launch title for PlayStation 5, set to release on November 12 in North America & Japan, and a week later for Europe. In case you missed it, you can check out recently revealed gameplay footage. A few new screenshots are in the below gallery.
