I wouldn't bet money this was done by the same people that developed any of the KF and Armored Games if that is what you mean.Well basically, if the game says "developed by From Software," then it is. If it has been developed by a different studio, they have to state that. In addition, if you look up the programmers, 3D designers, etc. who have worked on this game, you'll find that they have(in total) worked on all main King's Field games, Eternal Ring, several Armored Core games, Shadow Tower, Echo Night games, Dark Souls, EverGrace, etc.

Do the same people tend to work together? Is there such a thing as legitimate From' games versus the fluff games that tend to get put out on the side? Etc.At least MobyGames lists the people credited in games, and you can check what other games they've been credited for as well, like this: https://www.mobygames.com/game/ps2/adven...am/credits
