Dark Souls 2 gets three-part DLC

5 June 2014

For those of you who crave death again and again and again, Namco Bandai has announced a three-part DLC for Dark Souls 2, titled The Lost Crowns trilogy.

The trilogy is set in new areas with new enemies and bosses to battle and will kick off with Crown of the Sunken King – due for release on 22 July 2014 for PC and Xbox 360. The PS3 version will come online the following day.

Episode 2, Crown of the Old Iron King, launches on 26 and 27 August, while part three – Crown of the Ivory King – is scheduled for a 23 and 24 September release.

The thrust of the new trilogy is that you must reclaim three crowns owned by Drangleic’s King Vendrick. Crown of the Sunken King will be set in an expansive underground lair littered with stepped pyramids, according to publishers Namco Bandai, who added that it is “one of the more difficult levels” developed for the game.

Crown of the Old Iron King is set in a “massive tower” and players must navigate paths through mist and flames.

Crown of the Ivory King is set in an “ancient temple wrung with freezing storms, towering walls and a hollowing emptiness.” Enemies in this wintry climate will specialise in freezing abilities and low visibility.

A trailer for The Lost Crowns trilogy is below.
