Atlus has announced that North American online support for Demon's Souls will end on 31st May.
Of course, the main, single-player aspect of From Software’s RPG will remain unaffected, but the multiplayer features will cease to work.
"It has been a tremendous honor and privilege for all of our staff at Atlus to have been involved with so innovative and groundbreaking an interactive entertainment experience," said Atlus.
"It was also of the utmost importance for us to sustain the game's online experience as long as possible, even beyond the point at which sales could help to offset the expense. Regrettably, the online servers cannot be sustained forever and now the end draws near.
"Thank you to the unparalleled passion and support of the Demon's Souls community throughout these last two and a half years. The online adventure may end soon, but the memory of it - just like that of every boss strategy, every level floor plan, and hidden secret - lives on in the gamers for whom the game was so special."
To mark the occasion, Atlus is planning to hold two separate World Tendency events next month; from 1st-15th May and 16th-31st May, based on fan voting. The publisher also encouraged players to sign in on the last day “before saying goodbye.”
There is no suggestion just yet that multiplayer support will end in other territories beyond North America.
