Miyazaki is 'okay' with a Demon's Souls remaster, but it's 'complicated'

If we're talking potential video game remasters or remakes, Demon's Souls has got to be a top contender. Plenty of folks fell in love with From Software's dark fantasy action-RPG in 2009, and plenty more of us went back to discover it after the studio's follow-up, Dark Souls, made tidal waves.

Speaking on the subject, director Hidetaka Miyazaki told Game Informer that while he recognizes fans' eagerness to revisit Boletaria, a Demon's Souls remaster conjures up complicated feelings.

First and foremost, Sony would need to be on-board with a remaster. That's nothing new. As for who would modernize the PlayStation 3 title, Miyazaki said: "If it was a studio that really loved the original work and really put their heart and soul into realizing it again, then that's something I would enjoy."

"But it's really complicated because I have these fond memories," he elaborated. "It's like when you write – when you're younger, you look back on [past work] and you think 'Oh, goodness what was I thinking.' It's not that I'm embarrassed, I just don't like to look at my previous works."
