Miyazaki: Expect to die a lot.
Dark Souls, the much-anticipated spiritual successor to From Software’s acclaimed 2009 RPG Demon’s Souls, will launch in Europe and the US in late 2011 on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, publisher Namco Bandai has confirmed.
The announcement came during the publisher’s Ignite event in San Francisco, which saw producer and director Hidetaka Miyazaki showing off several maps during a gameplay demo.
These included one set in the grounds of some ruins and another in a gloomy castle. There was also a lava level on show, plus a map set in a stony fortress full of booby traps and obstacles to overcome.
