Dark Souls 3 Embrace the Darkness Trailer
In the trailer we are treated to just over 2 minutes of gameplay footage, mostly pulled from the what was available during the recentnetwork test. We are given shots of enemies such as theDancer of the Frigid Valleyboss and theFrost Knightmini boss as well as some environment shots of the newlocations. Although much of this has been seen, it is still quite evident the graphical leap the game is making from its predecessors.
Check out our network test video below for a shot at these assets in action:
Also teased on social media with the trailer were thePrestige and Collector’s Editionswhich give fans a chance at owning something quite memorable in the form of statues and the Day One Edition soundtrack bonus which will be available along with the game as well as a starter guide. From our experiences with the beta, we can already say that From hasnailedthe soundtrack.
Are you hyped yet? April may seem like a long time away but it’s only a little more than 4 months away before we get this game in our hands, so we can expect to see more and more as we get closer. Let us know what you think of the trailer in the comments and visit theDark Souls 3 Wikifor everything you need on the game.
UPDATE EDIT
If the cinematic trailer isn’t doing it for you how about some actual gameplay footage? From Software has delivered a 4 minute gameplay footage release which includes a peak at an epic new boss and a familiar looking long curved sword:
Here’s a gallery of stills:
Emergence
Editor at Fextralife. I look for the substantial in gaming and I try to connect video games to the emotions and stories they elicit. I love all things culture and history and have an odd fondness for the planet Jupiter. I think my dogs are pretty awesome too.
Is it me, or did the graphics look super bad in that vid?
Never mind, guess the graphics card on my work CPU just sucks. I watched it again on my phone, and it looked totally rad!! I also saw a total spoiler vid on you-tube with new game play of some crazy tree boss with pitch fork villagers as minions. I’m kind of bummed I watched it, there were some real “oh, shiz!” moments that I wish I hadn’t seen
Haha yeah for real. I think I was just getting used to the fact that PC has always had to wait months to get the game.
I got u bb
I’m super psyched to not have to wait!
Whoops fixed that oversight. I wondered what the deal was with the PC version because I didn’t notice the PC box in the shot at the end of the trailer. These blind Old Hero eyes only saw the PS4 and XB1 boxes and figured that date was only for the consoles. Thanks for pointing it out.
FTFY
Cheers to all my midnight brothers and sisters!
Honestly, if it’s not called the Murakuma, I’LL eat YOUR hat!
Threw the Mura up too:https://darksouls3.wiki.fextralife.com/Murakumo
Honestly, if it’s not called the Murakumo I’ll eat my hat.
I added the boss to the Wiki, for lack of an official translation I named it Living Tree:

We can rename it later when we get an official ID. Was tempted to call it an Infected Ent but that’s probably going too far
Welcome, I saw SunlightBlade post about it on twitter and didn’t want to leave Fextralife out to dryHappy to contributing to this community.

Even though I know most, if not all, of the footage was taken from the area they demon’d it still just looks awesome.[T]/
