Demon’s Souls dreaming of a white Christmas

Atlus…announced plans to celebrate the holiday season with a Pure White World Tendency event for the award-winning hardcore multiplayer action RPG Demon’s Souls for PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system…Until January 2, 2012, the world of Boletaria will shift to Pure White World Tendency, easing the game’s difficulty and unlocking otherwise inaccessible areas and items. Following the recent news that Atlus would extend the Demon’s Souls’ online servers–responsible for the award-winning cooperative and competitive multiplayer roleplaying that has cemented the title’s place among gaming’s most celebrated classics–this holiday tendency event further demonstrates the publishers ongoing commitment to the game and its loyal community.

If you’re like me, you read that as Dark Souls. But this is, of course, the previous game, with the publisher intent on your knowing their iteration is still going for folks who don’t mind toting around fistfuls of that wheatgrass stuff you have to eat to heal yourself.
