“You Died”
For those who have completed the game and miss that screen, it’s time to rejoice! Bandai Namco and From Software have officially announced that the first expansion for Dark Souls III, titled Ashes of Ariandel will be released on 25th October.
Now if you had kept up with news regarding the game in general, you would’ve have found out how people were having fun replacing all the in-game textures with crabs or an image of Nicholas Cage (what?!?), so love for the Dark Souls games hasn’t died. Ashes of Ariandel will be the first of the two expansions planned for the game, adding tons of new stuff, including new weapons, armour, magic and a new PvP arena called Immortal Competition. The DLC will also add “exciting lore to expand the overarching Dark Souls III storyline,” Bandai Namco says.
Here’s what the official statement has to say:
“Return to the world of Dark Souls III and uncover a terrible secret that lies within the frozen land of Ariandel. Players are tasked to enter the land of Ariandel and defeat the evil within to uncover the mystery of what has caused the land to become defiled. In addition to adding a new environment to Dark Souls III, the Dark Souls III: Ashes of Ariandel expansion will also include new weapons, armour sets, and magic for players to discover and experiment with, as well as new features for the game’s wildly popular competitive multiplayer mode.”
Ashes of Ariandel will be released on 25th October for the PC, Xbox One and PS 4 and will come with a price tag of $14.99.
