Dark Souls is a dark fantasy action RPG developed by From Software and published by Bandai Namco. Dark Souls is the spiritual successor to Demon's Souls and the second installment in the Souls series.
Dark Souls takes place in the fictional kingdom of Lordran, where players assume the role of a cursed undead character who begins a pilgrimage to discover the fate of their kind. Like its predecessor, it is known for having a fiendish difficulty.
The game was released in 2011 for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. In 2012, Dark Souls: Prepare To Die Edition was released for PC, which was later ported to consoles.
