DARK SOULS™: REMASTERED

DARK SOULS Remastered is the updated version of FromSoftware's 2011 action RPG, rebuilt for modern hardware at 60fps with online capacity increased from 4 to 6 players. The game's interconnected world of Lordran is designed without a map, relying on environmental cues and player memory for navigation. It established the template for the Soulslike genre through its deliberate combat, sparse lore delivery, and permanent death with corpse-run mechanics.

Good for

Avoid if

  • You find repeated death and slow respawn to last checkpoint fundamentally unpleasant
  • You want accessibility options — Dark Souls has none
