Herp, I thought they shut it down in March. Seems they're extending it to October.

That's two more months, unless they see fit to extend it again.
Anyway, the game is still playable solo, but not having multiplayer means you're missing out on lots of fun stuff. Like invading someone else's game as the monk in the ridiculous hat, or annoying the hell out of invaders with your scraping spear. You also won't be able to see messages left by other people.
Quote:The online servers are scheduled to be shut off on October 11, 2011. A quote from Aram Jabbari, who is the manager of PR and Sales, "We will support the online servers for Demon's Souls as long as we possibly can, and we'll be as transparent about the entire process as possible, hence us constantly updating folks as to what to expect."
