Namco Bandai has said the Black Phantom Edition of Demon’s Souls has, for all intents and purposes, sold out in the UK.



Speaking with Eurogamer (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/uk-demons-souls-virtually-sold-out), Namco PR manager Lee Kirton said the game’s considered an “amazing success” in the UK, and other than a* few “dribs and drabs” the game is virtually out of stock.

“I can’t give you a number, but what I mean by an ‘amazing success’ is that all the stock we built of the Black Phantom Edition has sold out,” he said. “For a game that’s been out a long time overseas we believe it to be a success. Reviews scores and coverage have been amazing.

“We haven’t done hundreds of thousands of units, but we’ve been pleased.”

Demon’s Souls: Black Phantom Edition was released on June 25 in the UK for £44.99 and contains an art book, soundtrack CD and strategy guide. The standard edition of the game will be released this Friday, August 6, for £34.99.

If you haven’t gotten it, you really should.

Atlus, the US publisher, confirmed last month (http://www.vg247.com/2010/07/26/demons-souls-online-servers-staying-up-until-spring-2011/) the Demon’s Souls’ online servers would be kept online in the US until March 2011.
