The director of Dark Souls Hidetaka Miyazaki said that the spiritual successor to Demon's Souls will have a map of the biggest game of at least 50% compared to its predecessor. "Miyazaki said that the map will have small areas that are not essential to reward the Players explore, and although there will be a formal system of side quests, there will be targets outside the main story.

"Include events that encourage players to create their own small goals." Miyazaki also spoke of the narrative of the game, what will happen with a minor in a manner similar to Demon's Souls. "I wanted to create a game where, ideally, the gameplay of the player he would become a story in itself. So there is little difference in approach to the concept of a history of Demon's Souls."

Recall that Dark Souls should get to the end of 2011.
