News: It is about time.

Namco Bandai has announced that they've teamed up with Sony Computer Entertainment to bring Demon's Souls to Europe and the rest of Asia. The From Software-developed RPG will launch on June 25 in an exclusive "Black Phantom Edition."

In addition to the award-winning game, the Black Phantom Edition will include "a brand new hardback artbook filled with mesmerizing concept and game art images, a new strategy guide, plus the deeply atmospheric original soundtrack of the game on CD." All of these bonus items will make the Black Phantom Edition the definitive version of Demon's Souls.

"We're very pleased to be working with SCEI to bring the fantastic Demon's Souls to gamers outside of Japan and North America," said Olivier Comte, VP Marketing, Sales & Publishing Namco Bandai. "The game 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."

We'll have more soon.
