'Dark Souls 2' gets PC release date: April 25, 2014
Dark Souls II hits shelves for Playstation and Xbox on March 11, 2014, but PC gamers will have to wait until April 25 for their chance to play one of the most anticipated video games of the year. Though this does involve more of a wait, this could mean that bugs and other issues could be worked out before the PC release.
This news was announced on the official Dark Souls Facebook page. Here is an excerpt from the post:
DARK SOULS II for PC and Steam is coming on 25th April 2014!
PC & STEAM version will benefit from PC capabilities with increased texture resolution and an enhanced frame rate option. On top of that, FromSoftware have been working to perfectly adapt the game for a mouse & keyboard combo.
This announcement also included some exciting pre-order news for the upcoming game as well:
As for console, and while supplies last, fans pre-ordering the game will receive the Black Armour Edition - containing an Exclusive Metal Case, the Original Game Soundtrack and an early access to the Black Armour Weapon Set - or if pre-ordered on STEAM® fans will get bonuses - digital soundtrack and the early access to the Black Armour Weapon Set, the Official Dark SoulsTM II Artbook in PDF format and The complete Dark SoulsTM II Digital Comic Book (written by Rob Williams and Andi Ewington with art provided by Simon Coleby) as digital extras for a complete immersion in the universe of DARK SOULSTM II.
