FromSoftware’s Souls games and Soulslikes are all considerably iterative of one another and perhaps that’s what makes each a unique installment despite all of their glaring similarities. Obviously the Soulslike subgenre formula that has persisted has also become tremendously popular, but while other developers mimic and iterate upon what FromSoftware has achieved, FromSoftware itself has never pigeonholed itself or been afraid to break its own molds.
