All three titles together with their extra content come in one three-disc pack.
About the Dark Souls games
The first game received spiritual roots from Demon’s Souls, that itself is seen as a spiritual sequel of the series King’s Field. In Dark Souls the focus rests on exploration of dungeons, together with the breath-stop and horror from encounters with enemies in dark places. The world extends heavily and grandly.
It fills with dreadful fire-spirits and deadly monsters, that all try to kill the player.
Death matters a lot in the game. Return after death forms a key part of the system, not simply repetition. The struggle requires great accuracy, so that although one dies often, one always feels like mastering the causes.
The game hamreps everything, but that challenge stays fair. It hopes that players will learn the rules, without too much leading or forced explanations. That style helped it stand out, while other games cared about fun to not lose the interest.
The plot of Dark Souls is not drawn in the usual way. One purposely scatters and hides the history. Mythology rests in object descriptions, setting details, dialog of non-playing characters and mysterious events.
The creators hand over the story too the player, which urges research and watching of the world. The souls work like coin; one absorbs them from beaten enemies, to later use them to level up, buy objects or improve weapons and clothing.
The Character of the player belongs to a large group of undead, cursed to endless death. The main game turns around beating of bosses and moving through the landscape. Above everything, the game stresses its own play style.
Dark Souls Remastered brings the original experience to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, computers and Nintendo Switch, with better image at 60 frames per second. It keeps the main adventure together with the add-on Artorias of the Abyss. The repeated release gets a “Very positive” note on Steam, where 94% from more than 105 000 opinions are positive.
The series acts as a base for action games. It offers rich mythology, deep world creation, impressive sound, Character choices and both cooperative and versus multiplayer. The lasting value ishigh, and a first run can involve around 50 hours.
