The highly-acclaimed action-RPG Demon's Souls finally has a European release date, courtesy of Namco Bandai.  Demon's Souls will be available in Europe on June 25th in a limited edition-only pack which includes a CD soundtrack, art book and strategy guide. 

Demon's Souls blends elements from action adventure titles and RPGs, and also includes a well-received online multiplayer. It was featured in many publications' games of 2009 lists, and sold unexpectedly well following its US release last October. This led to Sony admitting their initial decision to not release the game in Europe was a mistake.

Namco Bandai VP of marketing, sales and publishing Olivier Comte said:

"We're very pleased to be working with SCEI to bring the fantastic Demon's Souls to gamers outside of Japan and North America. It is exactly the kind of quality experience with which we are continuing to grow the Namco Bandai games portfolio of titles, and we will be working hard to ensure it’s at least as much of a success in our markets as it has already proven to be elsewhere.”

Namco Bandai will also be publishing the game in the Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific.
