New patch for remake of Demon’s Souls will seriously complicate life for speedrunners

Social media and forum users, including Reddit, report that the developers of the Demon’s Souls remake from Bluepoint Games and SIE Japan Studio have released a massive patch for the game.

The size of the mentioned update (it received the serial number 1.004) is 7.75 GB. For comparison: in the case of version 1.003, which was released at the end of November, the download required only 227 MB.

It is also noteworthy that the developers of the remake did not publish a list of fixes introduced by the patch, so players have to look for changes on their own.

A Reddit user under the pseudonym LeeShawBrown has collected finds from active community members into a single list. Based on it, the update turned out to be really large-scale.

In particular, the authors have eliminated bugs used by speedrunners to quickly increase the damage done (using a gold coin ) and teleport to unopened locations from those already unlocked.

Among other things, the patch corrects the work of activity cards and the display of user messages, and also removes unintended side effects when using some rings and changing the gender of the character.

The Demon’s Souls remake was released on November 12th exclusively on PS5. Earlier it became known that a simplified model could appear in the project , but the developers refused to integrate it out of respect for the creators of the original game.
