A new trailer for Dark Souls 3: The Ringed City debuted this morning, days before the game’s final expansion heads to PC and consoles, and it’s got us pretty damn excited for the last bit of Dark Souls 3 DLC being developed at FromSoftware. Bandai Namco also revealed one more patch that will be distributed before The Ringed City debuts next week.
If you’re one of those fans who tries to avoid as much information as you can in the run up to a new Dark Souls game or expansion, this probably isn’t going to be the trailer for you. A variety of enemies from the next DS3 add-on are featured in this week’s promotional footage, including a few that are almost certainly bosses. The trailer also confirms the sad news many of us already knew; specifically, that Dark Souls 3: The Ringed City will bring an end to the “Age of Fire,” FromSoftware’s (metal as f--k) name for the trilogy’s concluding narrative.
Today also marks the release of the latest Dark Souls 3 patch, a sizable offering that introduces the next two PvP maps, paves the way for the game’s final expansion, improves performance (particularly on PS4 Pro) and rebalances a variety of weapons. Additional information on this week’s update, and a follow-up patch set to deploy on March 27, can be found on Steam.
