Dark Souls 2 Trailer Shows Off the Game’s Brutal Challenge

January 15, 2014 by Stephen Daly

Because you just haven’t died enough in videogames over the years.

Namco Bandai has released a new trailer for Dark Souls 2 which is a combination of CGI and gameplay.

The trailer's narrator comments:

"Your wings will burn in anguish time after time for that is your fate: the fate of the Cursed."

We get a look at some of the bosses in store for players including a large, winged demon which erupts from a pool of lava; a beast made of tormented, writhing bodies; spiders, and a reaper type figure. It certainly seems that players will have a broad variety of enemies to contront in the game.

For those looking to punish themselves, they should be prepated to die on March 14th when Dark Souls 2 releases on PS3 and Xbox 360 and soon after on PC.

Developers FromSoftware has gone to great lengths to insist that the game will be every bit as challenging as the original.
