It's hard to tell how exactly the game is changing in terms of content, but I'll be really interested in seeing what 6 player sessions are like. The preview only showed zones that are already in vanilla + current dlc.

It does look better graphically. Hopefully it fixes the lighting intended in the original release too. The dragon in Heides tower of Flame was a pleasant surprise.
 
PS4?! I think I just got a boner...

Any word on an AU release date?
 
Another game to add to the collection..
I wonder if they will rework dark souls 1 and demons souls for Ps4.
Im sure it would sell big .
 
Nice. I alright have it on my PC and 360. Can't wait to play it again on my PS4. Dark Souls is the only game I really find myself playing now.
 
I just finished a 2nd round if about 50 hrs in dark souls 2 so I don't think I have it in me to but this one.

It would be great if it was 60 FPS though.
 
Classic name.
"scholar of the first sin"..

From-soft brainstorm some classic names and titles .
 
Wait, this doesn't look quite so much like a 4th DLC so much as just GOTY re-release of the game for existing consoles and a port to new ones. I saw no new content in the trailer nor was any mentioned in the description. Darn. I am disappoint, and I think the OP should maybe be edited.

Hmm, it may be worth it for me just to pick up the PS4 version. The DLC is already $30 by itself and I haven't played any of it yet.

I'm in the same boat. Might be a bargain actually.
 
It would be awesome if they brought dark souls 1 to PS4 . Unlikely ,but a man can dream.

Yeah I think you might be right, that sucks. I'd probably buy the game again for the PS4 if it had a new DLC.
 
Glad it's coming to PS4. I'll be getting it when I get a chance.
 
Already have it and all the DLC on PC. Probably won't get this, I'll wait for the new non-official Souls game to hit PS4.
