About this gallery:

For this list, we decided to focus not just on all the Souls-like games from the company, but even their many DLCs, all in an effort to map out the kind of person you are. Keep in mind, this isn’t a ranking – each game is special in its own way (yes, even Dark Souls II).

If you think we missed something about one of these games, or if you just want to talk about your favorite, why not drop a comment and let us know? We’re all ears (and probably a bit of judgement, but only a little). | © FromSoftware

Cropped Demons Souls

Demon's Souls - You were there from the beginning, and you loved every moment of it

Ah, Demon’s Souls – the game that started it all. If this is your favorite, you’re probably the type who loves to boast about how you were there first. You cherish the raw, unforgiving challenge of the early days before the franchise exploded into mainstream success.

You have a deep respect for the origins of the Souls series, maybe even holding a secret grudge against those who only started with Dark Souls (we see you, newcomers). You appreciate that Demon's Souls doesn’t hold your hand, offering a steep learning curve but the satisfaction of conquering its harsh world. There's a certain level of nostalgia at play here, too – you know what it feels like to survive on the edge of your seat, taking down that first boss and feeling like a true gaming pioneer. | © FromSoftware

Dark Souls 1

Dark Souls - You’re the type who thrives on challenge, lore, and a touch of existential dread

Dark Souls is a game that demands patience, discipline, and a willingness to die over and over again, and if this is your favorite, you probably revel in the sweet agony of its intricate design. You’re the kind of player who thrives in a world of cryptic lore and interwoven pathways, where each death feels like a lesson rather than a setback.

You’re also someone who likely gets a weird sense of pride from explaining to people that, yes, Dark Souls is hard, and yes, you beat it without looking anything up (even though we both know you did once or twice). You might have a Dark Souls tattoo or a Twitter bio that says “Prepare to Die.” You enjoy a bit of suffering with your victories, and you certainly know how to savor those moments of triumph when you finally down a boss after hours of attempts. It's not just a game to you; it's a badge of honor. | © FromSoftware

Cropped artorias of the abyss

Artorias of the Abyss - You’re a true Dark Souls aficionado, and you like your tragedies served with a side of badassery

So you’re a true Dark Souls connoisseur, huh? Artorias of the Abyss is your favorite, which means you have a deep appreciation for the finer, more poetic side of the series. You understand that Artorias isn't just about the difficulty – it's about the atmosphere, the lore, and the tragic elegance of Artorias himself. You’re probably the kind of person who waxes philosophical about the nature of fate, how the once-heroic knight fell to madness, and how the Abyss represents more than just a physical location.

You might even be known to make comparisons between Artorias’ fall and other stories of tragic heroes (yes, we know you’ve read The Iliad). Your love for this DLC shows that you’re not just here for the combat – you’re here for the deeper layers of storytelling that make the Souls series legendary. And let’s be real, you definitely enjoy a challenge. | © FromSoftware

Dark Souls 2

Dark Souls II - You’re a contrarian with a taste for complexity and a deep appreciation for the overlooked

You’re a bit of an enigma if Dark Souls II is your favorite. This installment is the most divisive of the bunch, but you’re the type who thrives in underappreciated corners of gaming. You understand that Dark Souls II may have its flaws, but you also recognize its ambition, its unique twists on the formula, and its willingness to experiment. You’re probably the type who enjoys the change in mechanics and the hauntingly beautiful (yet eerily broken) world of Drangleic.

While others complain about the “soul memory” system or the confusing story, you proudly defend its quirks, offering a passionate argument for its misunderstood greatness. You don’t follow the mainstream – you’re a bit of a contrarian, and that’s exactly why Dark Souls II resonates with you. Besides, who else is going to spend hours exploring the labyrinthine areas and debating the finer points of Dark Souls II's lore with fellow die-hards? | © FromSoftware

Crown of the Sunken King

The Crown of the Sunken King - You’re an explorer at heart, always seeking the hidden gems of the Souls universe

If you’re all about The Crown of the Sunken King, you’re the kind of player who loves to get into the weeds – and I mean that in the best possible way. You appreciate the smaller, more intricate details that enrich the world of Dark Souls II. The atmosphere of the Sunken King’s ruins and the stunningly unique design of the DLC’s environments have you hooked. You’re probably drawn to the deep, hidden stories of forgotten civilizations, lost treasures, and the thrill of discovering a well-crafted secret.

It’s not enough for you to just finish the game – you’re the type who wants to unlock every secret, beat every challenge, and uncover every hidden treasure chest. You’ve probably spent far more time in this DLC than most people, and you’d be the first to tell anyone that the Crown of the Sunken King is a masterpiece in its own right, even if it’s sometimes overshadowed by the rest of the Dark Souls II experience. You find beauty in the ruins, and you wouldn't have it any other way. | © FromSoftware

Crown of the Old Iron King

The Crown of the Old Iron King - You like your challenges fiery, oppressive, and with a side of pyromania

If you gravitate toward The Crown of the Old Iron King, you're clearly the type who enjoys turning up the heat – both literally and figuratively. You’re drawn to the suffocating, fiery environments of this DLC, where molten rivers flow and the very air feels thick with doom. You love the clash of steel against the backdrop of an ancient, industrial world where even the architecture seems like it’s fighting back.

You probably consider yourself a "master of fire," proudly wielding pyromancies or embracing the hot chaos of the Iron King’s legacy. And let’s not forget about the unforgettable boss fights – you thrive in these furnace-like arenas where every step could be your last. It’s not just about surviving the heat; it’s about embracing it, making the Old Iron King DLC a perfect fit for your burn-it-all-down attitude. | © FromSoftware

Crown of the Ivory King

The Crown of the Ivory King - You’re a lover of beauty and tragedy, with a soft spot for frostbitten ruins

If you’re drawn to The Crown of the Ivory King, you have a poetic soul. You appreciate the eerie beauty of the frozen landscape, where the cold bites deep into your bones and the silence is broken only by the howls of the wind. You're not just in it for the boss fights (though the battle against the Ivory King is a highlight); you love the atmosphere, the tragic narrative of a king who fell to despair, and the sorrowful echoes of his once-great kingdom.

You probably have a soft spot for stories about the fall of civilizations, especially when those tales are wrapped in frost and snow. There’s something about the desolate beauty of this DLC that speaks to you – you know that even in the harshest conditions, there's a quiet elegance to be found. You like a challenge, but you also enjoy a little poetic melancholy on the side. | © FromSoftware

Dark Souls 3

Dark Souls III - You’re a fan of high-stakes combat, nostalgia, and wrapping up a legacy

If Dark Souls III is your favorite, you’re probably someone who enjoys a perfect blend of old and new – a game that both honors the past while pushing forward with polished mechanics. You appreciate how this installment brings everything full circle, tying up the storylines and offering those bittersweet moments where the finality of the series hits you right in the feels.

You’ve been through the ringer with the Souls games before, and now you're ready for the ultimate challenge, with combat that demands perfection. You’re also a bit of a fan of closure, relishing in the fact that Dark Souls III brings everything to a head – the characters, the lore, the world itself – and you wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s not just about the difficulty; it’s about finishing what you started, walking the fine line between nostalgia and excitement for the next big thing. | © FromSoftware

Ashes of Ariandel

Ashes of Ariandel - You’re a lover of icy landscapes, artful design, and punishing beauty

If you’re all about Ashes of Ariandel, you’re someone who finds beauty in the cold, bleak expanses of a forgotten world. The snow-dusted environment and the haunting atmosphere of the painted world speak to your appreciation for more subtle, melancholic beauty. You probably enjoy games that create a sense of isolation – the feeling that you’re all alone, battling both enemies and the freezing elements.

The bosses in this DLC, particularly the Sister Friede fight, are the perfect mix of elegance and nightmare, and you revel in the challenge they present. You're not the type to shy away from tough encounters, especially when they're wrapped in such an aesthetically striking, haunting package. You probably also have a thing for lore that’s layered and mysterious, enjoying the unraveling of this quiet, tragic story one detail at a time. | © FromSoftware

The Ringed City

The Ringed City - You’re a true Souls veteran who seeks the ultimate test of endurance and exploration

If you love The Ringed City, you’re probably someone who has been through it all and is still hungry for more. This DLC is for the Souls master who craves not just a challenge, but an entire world to explore, filled with hidden paths, intricate design, and some of the most brutal encounters in the series. You’re here for the lore, the mystery, and the finality of it all – the end of the Dark Souls saga.

The crumbling city, with its dying embers and haunting architecture, is a place where both the past and future are inescapably intertwined, and you love that sense of poetic finality. The bosses are tough, but you take them on like a seasoned veteran, savoring every victory as a true Souls enthusiast. You're not afraid of the challenge – in fact, you see it as the perfect way to honor the franchise, closing the book on one of the most legendary sagas in gaming history. | © FromSoftware

Cropped Bloodborne

Bloodborne - You thrive in chaos, embrace gothic horror, and can’t resist a blood-soaked challenge

If Bloodborne is your favorite, you're clearly someone who enjoys a faster, more frantic kind of brutality. While others are carefully parrying in Dark Souls, you’re charging headfirst into the fray, trading blows with a visceral, manic energy. You love the gothic horror vibe, drenched in Lovecraftian nightmares, where every corner hides grotesque creatures and your only defense is to strike first. You revel in the relentless pace of the combat, where dodging and attacking in the same breath feels like an art form

You’re not afraid of a little madness – in fact, you’re probably drawn to it. The fast-paced, aggressive combat of Bloodborne speaks to your love for precision and high-risk, high-reward play. And let’s be honest, you secretly enjoy the aesthetic of Bloodborne more than any of the other Souls games, with its twisted, Victorian atmosphere and horrifyingly beautiful world. You’re all about the bloodlust – and embracing it makes you a true hunter. | © FromSoftware

Bloodborne the old hunters msn

The Old Hunters - You’re a master hunter, seeking deeper lore and punishing challenges in the darkest corners of Bloodborne

If you’re drawn to The Old Hunters, you’re no casual player – you’re the kind of Bloodborne enthusiast who wants more: more lore, more challenges, more everything. You’re not satisfied with just finishing the base game; you crave the sinister depths that this DLC plunges you into. The atmosphere is darker, the enemies are more grotesque, and the bosses are some of the most horrifying and difficult in the Soulsborne universe.

You likely find satisfaction in exploring every inch of the Old Hunters’ nightmare, piecing together the tragic tales of hunters who have lost themselves to madness. The brutal combat here is like an extension of your bloodthirsty instincts – you’re not just surviving Bloodborne; you’re reveling in it. This DLC isn't for the faint of heart, and neither are you. You thrive in its depths, where fear and difficulty go hand-in-hand with the rewards of triumph. | © FromSoftware

Sekiro

Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice - You live for precision, swift combat, and a no-nonsense approach to defeat

If Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is your favorite, you’re the type who appreciates finesse over frenzy. Unlike the slow, methodical pace of the Souls games, you prefer Sekiro's fast-paced, brutal swordplay, where timing is everything and every move can mean life or death. You thrive on precision and mastering the parry – after all, the “Posture” system rewards the perfect riposte, not just the perfect hit. The challenge here is steep and unforgiving, and you probably relish in the game’s emphasis on skill rather than relying on heavy armor or ranged attacks.

You don’t mind the lack of RPG elements like builds or stats; you like your power to come from your own reflexes, your own mastery of the katana. Whether you’re slicing through bosses or sneaking past enemies with grace, you appreciate the tight, focused combat and the way the game demands total concentration. Sekiro isn’t just about completing the game – it’s about becoming a true shinobi, and you’re ready to prove you have the discipline to do so. | © FromSoftware

ELDEN RING

Elden Ring - You’re a seeker of vast worlds, epic battles, and stories hidden in every corner

If Elden Ring is your favorite, you’re someone who believes in the beauty of discovery. This isn’t just a game for you; it’s a whole new world to get lost in, and you’re eager to uncover every inch of it. The open-world design lets you carve your own path, but you also revel in the intricate lore that FromSoftware has woven into every dungeon, castle, and crypt. You're not just after the challenge; you want to know the deeper story, the mythology, and the fates of the shattered world’s gods and creatures.

You probably take your time exploring every area, finding secret bosses, hidden treasures, and talking to every NPC (because let’s face it, some of them have the juiciest lore). You thrive in a vast, ever-changing world, and the idea of becoming a "Tarnished" and forging your own legacy excites you. When you enter the Lands Between, it’s more than just a quest for power – it’s a journey for knowledge, discovery, and triumph. | © FromSoftware

Shadow of the Erdtree

Shadow of the Erdtree - You’re hooked on Elden Ring’s world, and you can’t wait to see what’s next

If you’re already in love with Shadow of the Erdtree, you’re a true fan of the Lands Between, eager to see what new mysteries lie beyond the Erdtree’s shadow. You’re the type who can’t get enough of FromSoftware’s rich world-building, so when the first hints of a sequel or expansion popped up, you were all in. The promise of new areas, new lore, and new bosses excites you, as you’ve already spent countless hours soaking up everything Elden Ring has to offer – and now you're hungry for more.

Whether it’s more exploration, more story, or more punishing battles, you're ready to dive back into the world that captivated you in 2022. You’re not just a fan of the game’s epic scale; you’ve already grown attached to its world, and you know that each new chapter is just another step toward becoming a legend of your own. Shadow of the Erdtree is your next great adventure, and you’re geared up for whatever challenges await you. | © FromSoftware
