Phalanx

In creating this Boss, the most memorable and iconic element was the shields that the Hoplites carry. So I made sure to use the original textures and shape to get as close as possible to what was in the original version of Demon's souls.
With the addition of a fantastic Subsurface (jelly like) material, and nifty floor slime trail, (Not to mention and amazing environment, vfx and lighting.)
I feel the team brought this boss encounter up to standards that todays audience can respect and marvel at.

Much Respect to FromSoftware for making such and amazing classic.
Big thanks to Japan Studio for the opportunity to help share it with the world once again.
