The dark and grim soulsborne games created by FromSoftware (Demon’s Souls, 2008; Dark Souls series, 2011–2016; Bloodborne, 2015; Elden Ring, 2022) are popular among players due to their challenging difficulty and unique game mechanics. The company has created its own genre with these games, characterized by their difficulty level and similar game mechanics. Feelings of success are far and few, but all the more valuable. Comics and board games based on the Souls games have also been made.
