Dark Souls 3 (III) and quick review

Dark Souls 3 is an interesting action role-playing video game published by Bandai Namco Entertainment for Microsoft Windows (PC), Xbox One, PS4 (PlayStation 4). It was released worldwide just few hours ago. Its previous entries, Dark Souls 1 and Dark Souls 2 received lots of positive reviews as well as common praise to the visuals and combat mechanics upon its release. This video game came out in Japan late last month (release date on March 24, 2016), where the PS4 version sold over 200,000 copies in its first two weeks of release. So there were lots of things that players expected in this latest series. And as this much-anticipated new game of Dark Souls III lands today, let’s see some first reviews and receptions.


First, let’s check out a quick plot recap on Dark Souls I and II: the action is set in the Kingdom of Lothric, where an undead warrior known as the Ashen One (that’s you) is applied to avert an oncoming apocalypse brought about by the endless conflict between Light and Dark. The only way to avert this event is with the destruction of the Lords of Cinder, previous heroes who have linked the First Flame across the ages.
Chloi Rad of IGN awarded Dark Souls 3 a 9.5 out of 10 and stating that “If Dark Souls 3 truly is the last in the series as we know it, then it’s a worthy send-off”.


Rich Stanton of Eurogamer also rated this game as "essential". He also added "Dark Souls 3 is a fabulous game" and was “a fitting conclusion” to the series.

Steven Strom of Ars Technica wrote that he thought the title still had the “smooth and impressive rendering of the series' signature style” and some of “the best boss fights in any Souls game”.

Erik Kain on Forbes.com also said that this game is wonderful, it does everything really well. It is also the best looking Souls game hands-down. He also added that Dark Souls 3 was built with detailed care and attention and all systems work flawlessly. The music is gorgeous throughout.
