The successor to FromSoftware’s ultra-hardcore action RPG, Demon’s Souls, is just months away, Namco screening an all-new trailer at this year’s Gamescom in Cologne.
Admittedly there isn’t a lot of new info to be extracted from the footage, though it does introduce fans to a number of the game’s towering boss creatures as well as a brief glimpse of co-operative and competitive online multiplayer.
Dark Souls will launch on October 7th for both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

I’m looking forward to this. I didn’t realise it was multi platform though.

It looks even harder then Demon Souls. :O I think i would rage quit after putting disc in,before it boots up to the menu. I wouldn’t be suprised if you had to fight the disc before getting to play the game. I think i would end up either blowing the world up out of angry or cause my PS3 to turn it self out in protest of me playing Dark Souls. It looks good though. :)

Cannot wait for this game, I don’t understand why people thought Demon’s Souls was difficult. I am not very good at games, but got through Demon’s Souls without great difficulty, it was just like any other RPG (just a question of patience and grinding)

You had to put alot of hours into it for it to become easy,that patience and grinding isn’t for everyone.Even when it could be called easy there were character builds that would have to rely on luck rather than stats to get past certain situations on the new game+ play throughs.

I think it was only easy if your tendency was pure White on black it was a nightmare
That said I’m still looking forward to this

Loved Demons Souls so much, got the platinum on it as well. I didn’t really find it as difficult as everyone else has, i struggle more with castlvania on normal. Maybe it was the consequences of dying which people found hard. Any ways cannot wait for Dark Souls, day one buy. Looks a bit tougher than demons souls too. Glad to see the gameplay is nearly identical too

Nooooooooo, this brings back memories of when I played it last month! *Step forward, dies, reloads, steps forward, dies, reloads, steps forwards, dies, backs away*

Haha! love the website link at the end of the video “www.preparetodie.com” Sums up the whole game!
Looks amazing but ultra, ultra, hardcore.

Unusual that it’s only in 360p. Looks great & incredibly difficult – definitely a sequel.
