DARK SOULS: REMASTERED - A classic in a new guise

Dark Souls: Remastered brings the tough role-playing game classic back to consoles and PCs. If you're up for the challenge, you should check out Keyfuchs for a cheap key.

As part of the reissue, Dark Souls received a number of technical improvements. These include not only the support of 4K resolution. In addition, finally, a representation in stable 60 images per second is part of the package. So the times are finally over in which one blessed in areas like "Shameful City" because the game action was degraded to a thumb cinema in particularly hectic moments.

Otherwise, Dark Souls: Remastered offers the same content that was already part of the original from 2010. Also on board is the DLC Artorias of the Abyss, which brings additional boss opponents, areas and challenges with it. At the beginning of their adventure, players create their own hero in Dark Souls and use different starting classes such as the barbarian, the magician, the cleric or the rogue. However, thanks to the free character development, one is not bound to his starting class.

Instead, the players collect souls, which can be freely distributed to the different status values ​​in order to strengthen their own hero and gain access to powerful weapons and skills. This is also necessary in Dark Souls, as the extremely tough difficulty level has not changed in the reissue. As before, the players are confronted with a dark fantasy adventure that demands everything from them.

In addition to the demanding level design, the impressive boss battles with sometimes screen-filling monsters that are all too happy to make short work of the player are particularly convincing. Only with sufficient patience and the right strategy can Dark Souls and the tough boss battles be mastered. Even though it is possible to continuously strengthen one's own hero or to plunge into battle cooperatively with other adventurers, Dark Souls: Remastered remains an action role-playing game that is only suitable for patient players who are looking for a special challenge.

Those who are looking for a classic role-playing experience that focuses on an exciting story should look elsewhere.
