The new Dark Souls 3 screenshots were released in anticipation of the game’s launch this April and they’re stunning. There’s an image of a woman with gray hair blocking her face, a knight kneeling in front of a shrine, along with a couple of images of what appears to be battle scenes. Check out the Dark Souls 3 screenshots below.
It’s unclear how Dark Souls 3 will connect to the first two franchise installments, but the game’s director Hidetaka Miyazaki recently told Gamespot back in the November 2015 the upcoming game might be the franchise's last. Miyazaki explained the From Software team is ready to jump into new projects after Dark Souls 3 ’s release.
“I don't think it'd be the right choice to continue indefinitely creating Souls and Bloodborne games. I'm considering Dark Souls 3 to be the big closure on the series. That's not just limited to me, but From Software and myself together want to aggressively make new things in the future,” Miyazaki said.
However, Miyazaki didn’t give a definitive answer whether From Software would go back to the Dark Souls franchise in the future. Learn more about the future of Dark Souls in Gamespot’s interview here . Dark Souls 3 is slated to be released to the Xbox One, PS4 and PC in the U.S. on April 12.
