This re-release of the brutally unforgiving game is the first time ever that the franchise has been on a handheld console. With updated visuals and the inclusion of the Artorias of the Abyss expansion, the Nintendo Switch port is every reason a Dark Souls fan needs to jump back into Lordran and journey through the land of tormented souls and death hidden away in each corner.
The Dark Souls Remastered is perfect for those that loved the first one and want to revisit, and also a fantastic way for those that never got a chance to play it to dive in for the first time. Check out a small blurb from our full review below:
“Limited issues aside, Dark Souls Remastered is truly the best way to play the game at the moment, regardless of your preferred platform.
