  • Rewards hard work with forward progress, Tough, but never insurmountable, Smartly designed levels, Gives players plenty of chances to fast travel
  • More welcoming, but still very tough, Menus and some mechanics are still hard to understand, Earliest level is the most challenging
  • Dark Souls III is still tough, but it tries harder than its predecessors to avoid turning players away. For the first time, I'm really enjoying adventuring through a Dark Souls world. I don't feel like the game is preparing to laugh at me with a “gotcha...

  • Abstract:  Dark Souls III is a superb addition to From Software's challenging series, fat with monstrously hard boss battles, a rich world ripe for exploration, and the ability to punch god-like beings in the face. But what about the PC version, specifically?Want to...

  Published: 2016-04-12, Author: Simon , review by: theguardian.com

  • Abstract:  When Dark Souls emerged, so brooding and so strange, in 2011, it had that most treasured of all video game attributes: novelty. Dark fantasy action games are a staple of a medium that rarely ventures from the agreed confines of genre. But only players of...

  • Fun Gameplay, Variety of enemies keeps game interesting, Story is great, Looks stunning
  • Extremely punishing game, Controls are frustrating
  • From gigantic bosses to normal sized enemies, anything in this game can and will kill you at some point, this is a fun but extremely difficult game. I don't know what the season pass includes but Dark Souls II's DLC was apparently really good so maybe tha...

  • Ebbs and flows more than its predecessors; deliciously dark and atmospheric - looks and sounds great; studded with epic bosses; hugely challenging
  • Camera sometimes catches in the environment; some will find it off-puttingly hard; some of the best bosses can be bypassed
  • Dark Souls III is the finest realisation yet of From Software's deliciously hardcore approach to games development, which dictates that in order to extract the maximum satisfaction from your gaming, you must first put in a near-superhuman amount of...

  Published: 2016-04-07, Author: Rick , review by: Bit-Tech.net

  • The added clarity to Dark Souls III isn't merely thematic, many of the game's older systems have been refined too. Titanite is far more common in DS III, and the world is scattered with elemental "gems", which makes upgrading weapons easier and infusing t...

  Published: 2016-04-04, Author: Rich , review by: eurogamer.net

  • Abstract:  In an industry built on sequels there are plenty of also-rans - those that fail to move on, those that change too much, and those that can't handle the expectation. Though it would be harsh to call Dark Souls 2 a failure all three of these factors played...
