Soulslike - Discussion, News, Memes

925 readers

This is a community for discussion, news, and memes pertaining to the video game sub-genre "soulslike".

Given Lemmy's size, the definition of soulslike may be treated relatively loosely. While games like the numerous FromSoft titles, the recent Star Wars Jedi games, Lies of P, Nioh and similar games should be the focus, games that incorporate soulslike elements - like Hollow Knight and Blasphemous, for example - may also be discussed here.

Basic Lemmy-quette applies. Additionally, since flairs don't exist yet, please do make sure to include a marker to denote what game your post is about in square brackets for clarity's sake. An example could be:

[BB] This enemy is so difficult!

or

[DS1] Anyone struggling with the gargoyles?

Happy new year, guys! I hope had a nice celebration and could meet up with friends or family (offline or online) :).

Not sure if I'll be playing any soulslike this weekend. Finished my recent Sekiro playthrough a few days ago after first-trying the final boss (๐Ÿ˜Ž), and now I'm stuck playing League again D: Oh well.

New year - new soulslikes! What upcoming releases are you excited for? Nioh 3, Mortal Shell 2, Lords of the Fallen 2 (yikes)? Let us know!

Been having a great time replaying DS3 lately. It's been a pleasant surprise to see how active gank city, spear of the church, etc are.

As for what I'm looking forward to? Probably unannounced FromSoft game (2026)
