i hope !
Would Sony even have the right to make such a game? I mean, they published the first one but I would imagine since they passed on the Dark Souls game, they lost the license.
*goes and cries in the corner*
More like; why wouldn't they?
It's a niche, but insanely popular and highly regarded IP on the internet. and sony owns it. Yoshida also loves the souls games. The thing is, sure they get Dark Souls free, but Xbox gets it too. so does PC. Demons Souls 2 would be PS4(PSV?) exclusive. which is far more important. as it'll sway a lot of souls fans towards PS4. because why get a platform with one dark souls, if you can get a platform with both?

Sony owns the Demon Souls IP, from what I remember reading.
Who says it wouldn't be the same team though? Demon's Souls was a joint effort to begin with. There are a lot of bodies at Sony Japan Studio, developers/programmers/coders, all or at least some of which were involved with the first Demon's Souls, that could be working in collaboration with a design team at From Software.To be honest, can't really get too excited if its not the same team.
They must to do it , we need to know.....
Jeff Cannata at E3 seemed to get the impression that they're working on a next gen Souls game

i read somewhere that the area missing was the land of the giants or something
As someone who has played none of the Souls games, can I get a list of what's the difference between the two?

You mean what later became Anor Londo Think about it.
The Northern Lands were once home to the race of mighty giants. They lived in relative peace with the rest of Boletaria, until the thick, colorless fog swept in and blanketed their domain. The Northern Lands were the first to succumb to the spread of Demons, and in an effort to contain the madness, Boletaria sent hundreds of thousands of its finest knights to the great kingdom to fend off the threat. The effort was for naught, and the Archstone connecting to this land was later destroyed as a last-ditch attempt to contain the chaos. It did not succeed.
I can see it now. Cinematic third person squad shooter set in the demon souls universe developed by WORLD FAMOUS SANTA MONICA STUDIOS.
I can't see Sony paying FROM to develop a sequel.
Yes. Because even though the combat mechanics are similar the setting and gameplay dynamics are pretty different
-Hub World vs. Open world
-World Tendency Events
-Health from herbs
-Soul form/human form

The hub world was my favorite part of Demon Souls.Next gen Souls would be obviously great, but please don't revert back to the hub world design, From Soft.
No From Software, No Souls game, for me.
What, Demon's Souls 2, from Nihilistic? C'mon son...
the lack of l2/r2 would make this a nightmare.
SCEJ developed the engine that Dark Souls and Demon's Souls runs on.
Sony could hypothetically build up a team within SCEJ to develop Demon's Souls 2 just as they have Team Gravity, Team ICO, and the groups that made Knack and Puppeteer.
You should be more concerned about who's directing/leading the project than the developer itself IMO. Itigaki did great things with Team Ninja while he was there but they also made Ninja Gaiden 3
I wonder if Bandai Namco has a provision disallowing From Software going back with Sony for Demon's Souls 2
I played and beat Demon's Souls 2, so I can confirm this.Demon's Souls 2 > Dark Souls 2
Sorry.
