BLACK SOULSSpoiler-controlled player guide

News & Updates

What changed on the site and in the series. Reviewed core pages state the review date, review scope, evidence source, and any remaining verification gap.

Search recovery: thin detail pages removed from the sitemap

Incomplete character profiles and short boss/item records remain usable through the hubs and site search, but now carry noindex and no longer compete as external landing pages. Canonical, robots, and sitemap checks now run automatically during every production build.

DEAD RED HOOD and BLACK SOULS 3 status corrected

The previous page incorrectly treated the absence of a BLACK SOULS 3 announcement as the whole series status. DEAD RED HOOD is a separately titled announced project with a developer-stated 2026 target; no exact date or Steam page was found during this review. A title specifically called BLACK SOULS 3 remains unannounced.

Official image-source catalog added

The two official Steam galleries are now cataloged with source, dimensions, descriptive alt text, and a general/caution suitability label. Safe official media has been added to the core guides without presenting publisher screenshots as first-hand route evidence.

Database expansion: 48 new pages

Featured boss guides expanded from 10 to 26 (the full BLACK SOULS opening run plus Wonderland's killer gallery), character pages from 10 to 16 (all ten BS1 heroines now covered), individual pages for all 22 endings with rarity ranks and routing advice, a full Wonderland locations guide, and new Steam version, language support and Steam Deck pages.

BlackSouls.app launches

The site goes live with complete guide hubs for both games, 22 documented endings, a 76-boss database ordered by real Steam completion data, all 167 achievements with rarity, and four interactive tools — Ending Checker, Route Planner, Achievement Tracker and Item Finder.

Achievement rarity data refreshed

All achievement completion percentages across both games were refreshed from Steam global stats — these power the boss order guides, the endings pages and the tracker.

Steam release information verified

BLACK SOULS (August 15, 2025) and BLACK SOULS II (November 28, 2025) store details — languages, prices and system requirements — verified against the current Steam listings.
