Bandai Namco announced a trilogy of Dark Souls II DLC today. The Lost Crowns DLC will be available on PSN, Xbox Live, and Steam and will include three chapters, starting with Crown of the Sunken King, available for $9.99 on July 22, followed by Crown of the Old Iron King on August 26, and Crown of the Ivory King on September 24.
A $24.99 Season Pass which will include all three chapters of the DLC trilogy will be available on Steam.
In the DLC, players will reclaim the lost crowns of the former King of Drangleic, Vendrick. Each chapter of the DLC will feature new areas, enemies, and bosses. The first chapter of the DLC, Crown of the Sunken King (screenshot above), will take place in a large cavernous underground environment.
