First Dark Souls Trailer Hits

The good news: we can now stop calling From Software’s Dark Souls “Project Dark,” a title that usually spawned random outbursts in the comment section from people misreading the name and thinking something Perfect Dark was on the horizon. The better news? A trailer to what is flagrantly Demon’s Souls 2 in all but name has now hit. And it’s juicy.

Our favourite part? No, not the giant rats (though they are cool), keep an eye out at exactly the 1:30 mark when our intrepid hero gets unceremoniously shunted from behind by what looks like a cross between a unicorn and an armoured armadillo. Didn’t see that coming, did you?

  1. thats not a game! thats a piece of film showing farmers can kill!

    • still looks amazing though. really need ot pick up demon souls when i have enoguh spare cash and the lull in games coming out finally gets here

  2. This looks awesome! can barely wait 8D

  3. Demon’s souls was perfect in my eyes so I have nothing but the highest expectations for this.

    • in my eyes it was infuriatingly hard..

      • That was the beauty of it, if you learnt the enemies moves and what would work or wouldn’t it all fell nicely into place.

  4. It’s clearly a rhino.

    I never got Demons Souls, I’ve heard mixed opinions on it, and I don’t think I’ll get this. I’d like to, but I can’t have every game in the world.

    • Actually looks like an armoured wild boar, there are clearly Tusks… :-P

  5. This will be an instant pre-order. The most special edition possible. =P

  6. Demons Souls need picking up too.

    So many games – so little time

    **sobs**

    • Last count I was approaching 250 hours gametime in DS, so yeah, proceed with caution. :)

  7. 2011 is such an expensve year for gaming, I want it but the question is can I afford it? *cries a little*

    And I still need to play Demon’s Souls *cries some more*

    • 2011 is just silly for games. Way too many superb titles, could probably do with this slipping to next year just to ease the burden…

  8. that looks fantastic, really loved demons souls and this looks almost the same but with a new story

    is it like a franchise, like demons to dark souls? if u get what i mean?

  9. By the time i came across all the hype about demons souls my local game stores had sold out and never got it back in, some didn’t even bother to get in to their stores. Would love to check this out, but is there a need to play demons souls first?

  10. just awesome to say the least.
