Ranking EVERY Soulsborne Game WORST TO BEST (Dark Souls, Sekiro, Bloodbourne, Elden Ring) 

I think Sekiro is the closest Fromsoft ever came to perfection within a game. The combat system is the greatest in history. So well thought out and couldn’t have been executed any better

For me Sekiro, DS3 and BB - best games in the series

Dark Souls III DLC’s are absolutely incredible. Best bosses. Insanely tough. “The Ringed City” is such a perfectly designed area. Absolutely, my favorite Soulsborne DLC.

There is something so special about the world in DS1. It has such an authentic feel to it that it almost feels real in a way. I can’t quite put my finger on what it is but the emotional connection you feel with the world is something they have not been able to replicate in their other games.

I feel like I’m the only person who absolutely loves dark souls 2, I always find myself coming back to it.

That was a very good ranking video with great explanations. Well done!

If Elden Ring is already number 1 on your list… imagine what it could be after the DLC! 😮

Can't stop won't stop the totally tubular grind 😎

This channel gonna blow up soon, you’ve been grinding

For DS1 pvp…I’ve been invaded every time I play, often several times a day. It’s awesome to see honestly

Elden ring was my first fs game and I loved it so much I went back and played the old ones and I gotta say ds1 has become my personal favorite from just how charming it is. Ds1 truly made feel like I was the character exploring this broken world trying to figure it out and keep pushing forward each area took me so long to figure it out that by the time I finished the area I truly felt like I knew it. It’s hard to explain why ds1 has so much charm buts it’s probably everything combined from the music to the interconnected world to the simple weapons to the dragons to the npcs to the bosses to the story to the items everything is perfect and I don’t think any other fs has come close to it imo. In other games like elden ring ds3 bloodborne sekiro you see so many cool shit that you kinda get desaturated but in ds1 everything is so simple that seeing a dragon seems so amazing and huge and like your truly seeing and fighting a dragon.

Whichever I'm playing at the moment it becomes my favourite soulsborne game

Excellent. BB is a freaking masterpiece. All of them are worth playing. What a studio.

This has to be the 800th souls video I have watched, and I probaly will watch 800 more.

Been subbed for a while but after the GH ranking video, I’ve been solidified as a fan for sure! But I have to know… how the hell do you pump out so many of these videos so quickly?! Like there’s no way you’re replaying all these, recording the gameplay, scripting out your dialogue etc. I need to know your process! Haha

Where would you rank Lies of P?

I appreciate DS 3 more today. I know it has a lot of fanservice and when it came out I hated it but today knowing that it rly is the closure to the trilogy I see why they did that also knowing more about the lore rly helps since most of them make sense in the world.

Great list! I mostly agree with these arguments and feel very well explained. Fromsoft have knocked it out of the park when it comes to this genre.

Elden Ring is my favourite closely followed by Sekiro then ds3, (maybe because I can't play demon souls or bloodborne). Elden Ring with seamless co op is the best experience I have had in gaming by far. Every time I try some older souls I look immediately for a seamless co op.

my god dude your grind is insane

If you have a PS5 and don’t have Demon’s Souls you are doing yourself a tremendous disservice! Excellent video bro, earned another sub🤙

1. Bloodborne 2. Dark Souls 3. Elden Ring 4. Dark Souls III 5. Dark Souls II Have not played the remaining two

Bruh how have you not finished the DS3 DLCs?? You’re saying you never fought Gael or Midir??

Love that you used the forest music from Sonic adventure 1 for sekiro.

1: DS1 2: DS3 3. ER 4. BB 5. Sekiro 6. DS2 7. DES This is my personal list in terms of my favorite first playthrough / hours played / overall fun. For first playthrough ER is definitely my favorite but in terms of replay value I never feel the want to replay it, meanwhile I’m still starting new playthroughs on DS1 and DS3 just because I feel like it is equally as fun to replay as it was to play on my first playthrough. Something about being able to beat those games in one sitting within 3 or 4 hours is extremely satisfying considering it took me 50+ on my first playthroughs. I can only do that on elden ring is I run past 90% of the content which is sort of a buzzkill for me. The first playthrough exploration in ER was so good and will never be matched for me but the bosses aren’t good enough on that game to warrant me starting a new playthrough, that and the fact that I actively have to go way out of my way to fight some of the coolest ones.

great video i have bloodborne which i plan on starting soon and it will be my first souls game and i plan to get elden ring soon as well since i love open world games and have heard a lot of praise for it

DS1, BB, and either demon souls or sekiro depending on my vibe are my top 3, i think elden ring is overrated as fuck even tho I love it and think it’s a solid 8/10, i just enjoy the carefully curated content of the more linear levels

I see some people giving sekiro shit saying “it’s far from perfect. No rpg elements, and the world isn’t as deep as the DS trilogy.” Okay and? Sekiro is its own thing. From software built something different and new while still maintaining the souls-like genre. They created something for vets of the series to learn and something that new players could be interested in. Also have we forgot what won game of the year in 2019? I rest my case.

Yes Elden Ring is the best one I strongly agree with ya, Bloodborne right after it for me, and we still haven’t seen Shadow of the Erdtree DLC yet!!

Wow demon's souls really getting snubbed here. Amazing game that created its own genre, and From is still reusing areas/bosses/concepts from demon's in its newest games. What makes it even stranger that you ranked it so low is that you ranked Dark Souls 1 quite high, despite it being basically Demon's Souls 1.5

I absolutely love all the Souls Games and so does my son. I have played with him for many years. Its really hard to rank them because they are all fantastic games and the best PVE Souls games has the least balanced PVP. If i had to choose 1 game for only playing PVP i would actually choose DS2 with Demon Souls remake on a close Second.

for me dark souls 3 will always be number 1 because no other game had this good bosses

hey man, could you do a ranking on every soul calibur game, it'll be cool.

Demon's Souls doesn't deserve to be last

They do have shields in bloodborne but i never see anyone use them. Myself included

Ds2 not being at the bottom made my nads pull up into my body.

Finally, a list that makes sense

I think my favorite souls like game is Dark Souls 1 (remastered version becouse 60fps) I just love the music, enemies, world, bosses and everything about it. I’m going to say it. You can play BloodBorne 60fps on ps5 i think. But still bro fantastic video. You get a subscribe👍

35:56-36:06 You say “rewarding” 4 times in 10 seconds 36:18 rewarding x1 36:21 rewarding x1 6 times in 30 seconds

I would have ordered these games slightly differently and showed both versions of Demons Souls as their own entries. However, the fun of life is everyone has different opinions. Really well made video, I enjoyed it lots!

All of them are great (Though I haven't played ds1&2 yet) But for me.. : Bb Sekiro Ds3 Demons souls/elden ring

I’m not gonna lie….you’re so spot on with Demon’s Souls!! Those Cthulhu mother fuckers made me smash my dual sense. I’d turn a corner and bam, they’d one shot me with a projectile spell running to fools idol. Infuriated me.

1. BB 2. DS3 3. DS1 4. ER 5. DS I honestly dread 90% of elden ring

I’ve only played Sekiro and Bloodborne, and am currently playing Elden Ring. But with just BB and Sekiro alone I had some of the best gaming experiences I’ve ever had. Sekiro will always be special to me though bc it was the first From Software game I ever played. I went straight into Bloodborne upon finishing Sekiro, so I was kinda breezing through most of it. It wasn’t until I got up to the DLC that I really started getting my ass kicked. Orphan of Kos took me longer to beat than any boss in Sekiro.

1. Dark Souls (crazy bcos the second half is pretty bad but the first half was the best experience I’ve ever had in a game) 2. Bloodborne (go do the chalice dungeons - DLC amazing) 3. Dark Souls 3 (best bosses - lacklustre environments. Nearly makes #2 for best soundtracks and bosses alone, it’s that good. 4. Elden Ring (disappointing pacing both in story and feeling overpowered/underpowered). I’d have the best 1hr of gameplay. Then something boring or just slicing through stuff. Overrated but colossal and fun. Completed but haven’t played it again. 5. Dark Souls 2 sotfs Notes: Elden Ring…balance feels bad. Didn’t feel that sense of magic and wonder like the others. I’m putting DS2 last because of some abysmal sections and combat but it really has that feel. Couldn’t wait to mess around with different builds on subsequent playthroughs. Didn’t click with Sekiro. I was trash at it. Not interested in the world. No build variety. I know it’s top for some.

You should make a video with the best order to play soulsborne games

Now i can learn EVERYTHING dark soul stuff😊

Bro didn’t put armored core 6 on here I’m ded 💀

Ok you made me laugh, subbed

Sekiro really isn’t close to the rest of these games at all, it’s a masterpiece, but it’s not a soulslike

I really hope they bring back Otogi if you like the lore and demons in japan era

Demon's Souls on Ps3 is a completely different experience from the remake. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to play the intended and original version

Dark Souls 3 gets some flack for its fan service but it’s hard to deny the boss lineup is one of, if not the best and most consistent line up they’ve made so far.

Hey guys I put about six hours in to demon souls a d whilst I loved the world and lore, I hated the stiff and bland combat and endless repetition. I love fair challenge and difficulty but alot of the time it just seemed a bit cheap. Will I enjoy Bloodborne or Elden Ring?

Fun fact: In demon's souls, if you close the game as soon as you die and restart it, you get sent back before the encounter you died in and you'll still have all of your souls. It works on ps3 and ps5, and I cannot resist doing it everytime lol.

Sekiro is interesting because it can be both the hardest and the easiest. If the mechanics ever "click" for you then it is unreal how much easier it can be. Love the game, but I don't consider it to be a "Soulsborne" game because it isn't an rpg. It stands alone, but it stands well.

My ranking is 1. Bloodborne 2. Dark Souls 3. Dark Souls III 4. Elden Ring 5. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice 6. Dark Souls II 7. Demon’s Souls

DS1 Sekiro and BB best for real

I just bought a PS5 just so I could play Bloodborne, then I saw Demon’s Souls and now I’m just going to have to try them all. This video was perfect timing. 10 out of 10

The trifecta of Fromsoft games for me is Ds1, ER, and Sekiro. Dark Souls 1 Had the Highest Highs. Elden ring had the most highs. Sekiro had the most Consistency.

The PS5 version isn’t the only way to play demons souls online- the emulated original ps3 version has popular fan servers where you can get the full original online experience. DeS is one of the smoothest running PS3 Roms so if even if you don’t have a great pc you can probably run it (runs fine on hardware as old as 10 series gpus)

Great list, but not finishing the DS3 DLC is criminal. Ringed City is so good.

6. Dark Souls 2 (I didn't like this game very much). 5. Elden Ring (for me the Fromsoft formula and the open world don't fit together and I didn't like the whole art design) 4. Demons Souls Remake ( beautiful and linear game, great level design) 3. Dark Souls (my first Souls experience, maybe the deepest atmosphere and lore, beautiful dark medieval fantasy and monochrome art design) 2. Dark Souls 3 (better than Dark Souls in almost all aspects, except for the general atmosphere) 1. Bloodborne (for me the absolute Fromsoft masterpiece, dark, gritty horror, steampunk fantasy, very interesting story, and the atmosphere is almost physical) never played Sekiro tho

Literally watching this while starting a new game in bloodborne 😂😂😂

I really adored Demon's Souls remake for its beauty. Gameplay-wise it's not up to par but damn, those areas felt like I'm really there.

I think the problem with DS3 is that the best aspect of it, the bosses, has now been surpassed. Demons Souls still has the best characters, Dark Souls still has the best areas, Dark Souls II still has the best PVP, Bloodborne still has the best combat. But Dark Souls 3 was the one with the best bosses, and in my opinion Elden Ring has the best bosses now. So what is Dark Souls 3 the best at now?

Glad someone else recognizes Dark Souls 1 as the Best of the Dark Souls. For me it's mesmerizing, the level design, the impact of routes and bosses design. The way the game set traps that you will almost always fall for it (which some don't like), the atmosphere of ringing the bells... Damn, there's so much to it... it's by far my favorite of the series.

Sekiro, Elden Ring, and DS3 are my top 3

This the only thing thats gonna make me smile today after Bray Wyatt's passing

Of what I’ve played so far(including other souls Bourne type games ) I loved ds1,2, just finished 3(my favorite ), I played bloodborne when it was released but at that time, wasn’t into souls games so I’d have to run that back again , lies of P has been wonderful , and code vein is pretty fun(not as hardcore) as the original souls games

My personal ranking based on several aspects would probably be: 1.Elden Ring 2.Bloodborne 3.DS3 4.Sekiro 5.DS1 6.DS2 7.DeS The weakest being like 7/10 and the strongest maybe a bit above 9/10

Ds3 my fav DS 2 is hard as shit for me 😂

Great list. I would have swapped bb with er, and swapped ds2 with des

My ranking is: 1. Elden Ring (best open world game ever made. Best exploration ever) 2. Sekiro (most rewarding combat ever) 3. Bloodborne (best atmosphere) 4. Dark Souls 1 5. Dark Souls 3 6. Demons Souls (still a top 20 game all time for me) 7. Dark Souls 2 (the only one I didn’t like)

elden ring is amazing but i cannot give the first spot . sekiro, bloodbourne and ds1 i dunno i just love them more .

To correct you : Elden ring doesnt contain 70 Bosses. It actually contains 238 bosses. Check on google

I have to disagree on the DS3 callbacks. I think they did those perfectly. That's what a sequel should be, a faithful followup of the original. I hate the way DS2 did this in comparission, it sorta feels like a fangame. A good example of this is Aldrich from DS3 and Old dragonslayer from DS2. Aldrich is an obvious callback to Gwyndolin, the area is the same, the place is the same, the guy is also the same, he uses the same magic/arrow attacks that you'll instantly recongise him from. But there are plenty of differences to distinguish the two, Anor Londo is obviously just a dead, broken place now that lost all its glory, Gwyndolin is a puppet controlled by a flesh-eating creature Aldrich, and he mixes up and adds some extra twists to the classic Gwyndolin attacks that it'll become a completely different fight. Also there's a good reason to reuse him for the story, makes perfect sense of Aldrich consuming the last living god. And in DS2 we have Old Dragonslayer. An obvious callback to Ornstein... but he's dark. Why he's dark when dragons are weak to lightning instead? What's his connection to the story, the knights of Gwyn? Why does he reappear in a random spot, with a dragon outside his arena making his name a complete joke? Why's his moveset exactly the same as in DS1? Where's Smough? No one knows and probably the devs didn't really care. They just grabbed an iconic character from the first game, slapped a different color palette on him and stuffed him in a random room to fill space. There are a couple more of these instances in both DS3 and DS2, and the pattern is always kind of the same. DS3 takes lots of callbacks but actually ties them into the lore, showing us how the things we knew well from 1 ended up in thousands of years. While DS2 took entire character concepts and just put them in the game because "if it worked the first time, it should now" (think about Najka, Gargoyles, Royal Rat,

Ds3 has excellent bossfights and pretty good areas but the linearity in its levels knocks it down for some people

I love all the souls series! I havent played sekiro and want to so bad! We need bloodborne 2!

demons souls was for me a very special experience. better than the others to me, right after bloodborne. elden ring was too large imho. it overstayed its welcome a bit unfortunately. If it was half as long i think it would be my place 2 spot.

I havent watched the video but here is my prediction from worst to best: demon souls, ds2, ds1, ds3, sekiro, bloodborne, elden ring. Lets see if i nail it

I just finished Bloodborne a couple of days ago. I got to Rom before when it came out and stopped playing then didn't go back. It's great but people exaggerate it. But I think both Elden Ring and Sekiro are better games. I think I'd actually say Dark Souls 3 is better too. I do like how unique its story and setting is. Not that many games nod to Lovecraft.

1-Elden Ring 2-Dark Souls 3 3-Sekiro 4-Dark Souls 2 5- Dark Souls 1 - this game sucks! Waiting for pc port for bloodborne, I have it for playstation but I think the wait will be worth it. Also I cant do 30fps.

Even though ive only completed dark souls 3, bloodborne and elden ring. Elden ring is my least favourite of the three, i didn't really like any of the boss fights (which is my favourite part of the games) i disliked the bosses so much that i stopped playing it and beat the whole of bloodborne before continuing

A Bioshock ranking would be awesome

Honestly if u don't agree that Sekiro is a souls-game u probably haven't played it.

mine are 3) sekiro 2) elden ring 1) ds3

For me I would only move Sekiro to number 1 or 2. Otherwise I completely agree

Elden ring and Bloodborne are my favorites

Ds1 - bb - elden ring/sekiro -ds2 (ds3 better critically but ds2 was more memorable) -ds3 - demon s

100% agree with this list ❤😊💯😎👍🙏

I will say, I would have disagreed with you about Demon's Souls a year or two ago, as i thought thr gimick fights were really cool and the level design and lore were great. Then I played the remake and yeah...I probably agree with you now. The game definitely shows it's age. World tendency sucks, healing sucks, and the gimicks aren't nearly as good the second time around. Still a fun playthrough tho!

i gave ds3 above 1, but other than that i agree with the order of this list

I have over 750 hours in Elden Ring...I guess I liked it.

If bloodborne got the same remaster as demon souls it would be goated!!

I beat orphan of kos while watching this video

I can't play BB as I'm on Xbox but for me it would go Elden Ring, DS3, DS1, DS2 and Sekiro for me is different enough to not be.

1. Bloodborne [10/10] 2. Elden Ring [10/10] 3. Dark Souls 3 [9/10] 4. Dark Souls [9/10] 5. Demon's Souls [8/10] 6. Sekiro [8/10] 7. Dark Souls 2 [7/10]

I have played sekiro, ds3 and elden ring so far and sekiro is by far the best I play mainly for bosses and in both ds3 and elden ring so far it's so easy to accidentally make the game not all that hard and not get the feeling of mastering the boss because your weapon is just too strong/your level is too high I had to just stop leveling at some point of my ds3 walkthrough since it didn't feel necessary to get some good challenge Meanwhile sekiro all I needed to do to avoid breaking the game was not using the mortal blade I do think the op stuff does add replay value and is fun to use after initial playthrough but for the first playthrough I want to struggle and ds3 definitely didn't give me that Elden ring I am not sure about yet since I am not that far into it but so far just exploring sloppily feels like it already made margit and godrick extremely easy at least

Nioh 1 and 2 are missing also Wo Long
