Gaming News Elden Ring: Forget the PS5 and PS4 version, the game has already been reimagined with PlayStation 1 sauce!

FromSoftware games go through the demake mill

In recent years, video games have progressed more and more, bringing us amazing experiences through their playful, narrative and graphic qualities. In the face of ever more conspicuous realism, one often wonders what such masterpieces could have looked like.

– a qualifier that, after reading it, could perfectly match FromSoftware’s latest title our examsince Elden Ring represents the quintessence of the formula created by the Japanese studio —, if we had known her at a very different time, many years ago. And it is at this very moment that the practice of Demake arises!

For those who do not yet know this technique, it is neither more nor less than the fact that a video game work is deconstructed to obtain only the bare essentials, which corresponds to a reduced version of the game that could have been created on previous generations of consoles . From this point of view, FromSoftware’s games are perfect candidates for this exercise, since some of the studio’s titles have paid the price for this practice, notably some episodes of Dark Souls but also Bloodborne, whose demake we told you about last November.

. Inevitably, such a phenomenon would not miss the exitelden ringbut we didn’t expect to see a demake so soon!

A trailer straight from the PlayStation 1

At the moment the demake ofelden ring does not take the form of a full experience as it could be bloodborne lately, but Youtuber Hoolopee has been seduced by the exercise by reviving one of the game’s trailers and giving it an aesthetic straight out of the 64-bit console era.

The youtuber let his talents as a 3D artist and special effects supervisor speak for themselves to immerse us in the lands of Entre-Terre as if we had just inserted the game disc into our PlayStation 1. The artist has managed to keep the dramatic tone and epic aspect of FromSoftware’s title even while applying dated graphics: a pretty feat that’s all the more impressive when you put the two excerpts together for comparison!

If it is just a follower in the stand then there may be ideas for more than one player who is passionate about this demake practice. In any case, the experience promised by Elden Ring will inspire gamers around the world, but it will primarily take place on PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. At least initially!
