Yesterday Demon’s Souls turned 2 and the publisher Atlus has a birthday present for those who play, but a present with 2 sides.

From October 6 – October 17 Boletaria will shift to pure white Tendency, easing the game’s difficulty and unlocking otherwise inaccessible areas and items. From then until the end of the month, the World Tendency will become Pure Black, making the game more challenging and again, opening up otherwise hidden secrets.

Tim Pivnicny, Vice President of Marketing and Sales at ATLUS on the 2nd anniversary said “Two years ago today, Demon’s Souls’ launch day, was one of the most exciting, unpredictable times in our company’s two-decade history.”
