FromSoft need to be worried.

[G2ThaUNiT]

FromSoft's most recent Souls game has sold nearly 30 million copies with its dedicated expansion selling more than 5 million copies in just 3 days.

Meanwhile Stellar Blade took 2 months to sell 1 million copies. I don't think FromSoft are shaking in their boots lol. That being said, a company always wants to improve and iterate. Which I'm sure Hidetaka Miyazaki will have his own ways of pushing the Souls genre forward.

Armored Core 6 has also proven that FromSoft is more than capable of making fast paced action while still being incredibly difficult.

EDIT: You mention Demon's Souls. I imagine you're referring to the 2020 title. A game FromSoft had nothing to do with. They only made the original 2009 game. Bluepoint Games and Japan Studio worked on the remake. The game is nearly a 1:1 remake of the original, but that includes ALL of its 2009 flaws. It's primarily a shiny coat of paint, but FromSoft themselves have clearly come a long way in their game design than they did in 2009 that now appeals to many more players.
