Dark Souls II Goes With Jethro Tull For Launch Trailer
You know a series has permeated the gamer collective consciousness when it can shrug off gravitas in favor of good ol’ rock and roll. Dark Souls II is out today, and its launch trailer features swagger that masks the impending death of each one of the game’s players.
Set to "Locomotive Breath" by Jethro Tull, the series of encounters featured hints at the many ways you’ll die (and triumph from the experience). You can start living in From Software’s dark world on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 today. PC gamers will have to wait until April 25.
Our review of Dark Souls II is live (we liked it quite a bit), and we’re live streaming later today. You can also check out executive editor Andrew Reiner’s five hour journal chronicling his many deaths.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
