GymratAmarillo said: Not a FS expert but heard exactly the same of them buying the rights from Bandai earlier this year from a couple of people who are pretty hardcore in all the FS frenzy. Sekiro is the other IP that actually belongs to them and that is quite funny. Sony paid and own the game that started it all and the game that many consider the best, Bandai paid and own the franchise that defined the studio and Activision only paid to publish a pretty cool game outside Japan (???).

That does seem to be the case.

Bamco still owns Dark Souls but if FromSoft wanted to publish another game like it they could just do Demon's Souls 2 I suppose.
