Dark Souls 2 Prequel Shows Hero’s History Before Being Cursed

March 7, 2014 by Stephen Daly

Dark Soul 2’s protagonist wasn’t always a soul-devouring Hollow, you know.

Bandai Namco has released a new trailer for From Software's Dark Souls 2 which is the first part of a prequel to the game. 

The video looks back at the game's protagonist when they were human before being cursed and transformed into a soul-devouring Hollow. 

We're shown pre-rendered cinematic footage of Drangleic, the kingdom where the events of Dark Souls 2 take place, in the trailer which you can watch below.

Dark Souls 2 is set for release on March 11th in North America and March 14th in Europe. The Windows PC version's launch date was finally confirmed yesterday as being April 25th. From Software has said that the PC edition will be better than the port of the original game.
