Here's the downside to watching any footage of Dark Souls—or even looking at its collector's edition art book. You're going to see some of the game's impressive and imposing enemies. But our latest look at Dark Souls, leading up to the game's release next week, is still a must-see.
I'm well into the Dark Souls experience, some 40-plus hours in now, and there's still plenty in this new trailer that I've yet to witness. I've not seen this armored knight and that armored knight, so I'll consider myself slightly spoiled, but I'm getting there.
Dark Souls comes to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in North America on October 4.
