The folks at Dark Souls unveiled a wealth of new screenshots today, featuring enemies both familiar and brand new. One of the screenshots shows a player dual-wielding weapons, a new feature for Dark Souls II. Hex spells are also new for magic users, in addition to the already available Sorcery, Miracle, and Pyromancy types of magic. The screens also show off new environments ranging from dusty caves to lush, overgrown ruins.

Dark Souls will be released on Xbox 360 and PS3 on March 11, 2014.

My body is prepared to die. Except the death penalty to my health, that's going to be murder. And the no-longer-invincible animations. Actually, I'm going go to train some more.

Can't wait for the ulcers!!!

This game needs to go next-gen.

Man, this game looks great!

Just dandy

You've been able to dual weild since Demon's Souls. They're simply imporving its functionality, it's not new.

Dark Souls 2 is also releasing on PC this time. You should list PC (digital download) as a source for the game.

Much anticipation! Wow! Such I can't wait any longer!

Has anyone else heard that enemies permanently disappear after killing them around 15-ish times?
by Brandon Friday, January 31, 2014 at 04:38 PM

Man I'm so ready, been playing Dark Souls again just to prepare.

Call me crazy, I think the Souls serious is so overblown is ridiculous. I'd give it a C at best, just me.

I just grabbed the first game for five bucks after wanting to try it, but not willing to drop a bunch of money on it. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I mean, I want to like it, but another part of me doesn't. I mean, it seems like a promising game, as well as a challenging one, but it isn't really difficulty. It is just memorization. I'd also like to point out that it is such an overrated game.

This game looks beautiful. I'm probably going to be rock hard the whole time

Can't wait!

So excited for this game and I don't care how many haters there are, this game is going to be epic!
by FatChicken Friday, January 31, 2014 at 07:15 PM

I have 340 hours logged in this game from steam and I still can't put it down. I'm on my billionth play through, and got it last August. I can't wait to die a lot in march.

There's something about the textures in some areas that REALLY bother me.
by jake hills Friday, January 31, 2014 at 07:46 PM

This game is absurdly hard haha
by Gravity Pen Friday, January 31, 2014 at 09:28 PM

This game is gonna be good.

I can't wait, just recently beat the first game and fell deeply in love with it. Now is training time. (EPIC TRAINING MUSIC)
