About

A Japanese developer known for the Souls, Armored Core, Tenchu and King's Field franchises.

FromSoftware is a Japan-based developer, founded in 1986, that develops games for a multitude of platforms. They are best known in the West for creating the Souls franchise; however, the mecha-based action franchise Armored Core has been the face of the company for much of their history, with 15 entries being released over 16 years.

Other notable releases by the studio include the King's Field, Otogi and Lost Kingdoms series, 3D Dot Game Heroes, Chromehounds, Enchanted Arms, and several Tenchu titles.

In March 2014, FromSoftware released Dark Souls II to critical acclaim. In the same year, at Sony's E3 media briefing, the studio announced a new title, Bloodborne, exclusively developed for the PlayStation 4. Like Demon's Souls, it is being co-developed by SCE Japan Studio.
