On the Dark Souls 3ย official site, you can check out ordering options and get lost in a pictures and videos of the game. Right now, only two different editions are listed: the regular pre-order and the collector’s edition. The collector’s edition, in edition to a copy ofย Dark Souls 3, comes with an art book, a cloth map, the official game soundtrack, a metal case, a starter guide, a ten inch tall red knight statue, and a box to contain it all. There is a third pre-order edition that is missing from the official site (since it is an Amazon UK exclusive): the prestige edition.
It comes with everything in the regular collector’s edition, but also includes a huge Lord of Cinder statue (standing over a foot tall). This edition is only for theย Dark Soulsย fanatic, as it will run you almost $500. But look at that statue!
The UK also gets the apocalypse edition ofย Dark Souls 3, but it contains just a few of the pieces of the other pre-order editions.
Dark Souls 3 looks like it will continue the series tradition of forcing you into outrageous boss battle and killing you. The series has gained quite a following due to its minimalist story and relentless difficulty. Earlier this year, Twitch took to the originalย Dark Souls and was able to complete it with a heavily modified version that eliminated some of the chaos in hundreds of people controlling one character.
