Ever since theSoulsseries became a mainstay of modern video games, so to have the seemingly impossible challenge runs certain players set themselves within the game. Whether that’s a particularly daring speedrun, beatingDark Souls 3on aGuitar Herocontroller, or usingDonkey Kongabongo drums to conquer the firstDark Souls, it seems the sky’s the limit for theSoulscommunity.
Although the remake has only been out for a few weeks, one particularly talentedDemon’s Soulsplayer has already managed to lock in one of these achievements, beating the entire game without taking a single hit. The seemingly impossible feat was accomplished byThe Happy Hobon Twitch, streaming a successful no-hit run that lasted almost six hours.

Although there were a number of close calls, including Hob narrowly avoiding a ranged attack during one of the final bosses of the game, the streamer came out on top, besting each of the game’s biggest challenges. It’s undeniably a huge feat, especially consideringDemon’s Soulsonly hit the PlayStation 5 earlier this month. For those wanting to see exactly how Hob manages to carve his way through Boleteria’s biggest and baddest monsters without as much as a scratch, the entire run can be found on his channel. It’s even capped off with a wholesome celebration with Hob and his dog.
For those who’ve never seen Hob’s broadcasts before, he’s an avidSoulsstreamer and frequently completes no-hit runs for a variety of different games, including the originalDemon’s Souls,Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, Dark Souls 3, Resident Evil 2,and evenThe Elder Scrolls: Oblivion.His biggest achievement, however, has to be his completion of what Hob affectionately refers to as “The God Run,” seeing himconquerDemon’s Souls, Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2, Dark Souls 3,andBloodbornein one go without taking a single hit.
Demon’s Soulsremake has been a major success so far, garnering a lot of praise from critics and players alike. Although it’s faithful to its source material, Bluepoint Games has resurrected the game from the ground up, with better visuals, faster loading times, and smoother combat. Seen as the original game was always regarded as a diamond in the rough, the studio has looked to polish the game for modern standards. They did include one original addition, however, witha mysterious locked door popping up in the game. Although it took a while, theDemon’s Soulscommunity uncovered the mystery behind the entryway, finding behind it a set of fan-requested armor.
