It has been almost three years since Dark Souls was released, and the sequel – according to its developers – promises “the franchise’s renowned difficulty and gripping innovations” in both single and multi-player formats.

Developer From Software has promised that the PC version of the game won’t repeat the mistakes made by the original port. They have also said that the game will be delivered as a full package, without any content stripped out for post-launch DLC.
