Hallmark challenge & reward await you with augmentations, additions and enhancements fueled by the passion and talent of famed Japanese studio From Software. Review: Epic Fun! - I played Dark Souls 2 on the Xbox 360 and loved it so much that I was excited to buy Scholar of the First Sin for my new Xbox One. So there you are, forewarned, I was predisposed to like this. There are some changes to the original. In some instances, good, in some sort of random, like they were just trying to make it different for players like me, but without spending too much time or thought. Some of the changes were obviously to help new players "find" things more easily, which is probably a good thing. They added some new NPC invaders and other baddies in unexpected places. Overall, I'm glad for the changes, so I couldn't just run through by rote. Functional Pros: Loading screens and summoning appear to be much faster on this combo. Functional Cons: This game freezes and randomly bumps me out once EVERY time I play. It does return you to the pace you were when it happened, but if you are co-oping, then you end up back at the summoning place. 4 friends have had the same experience. Luckily, it has always been exactly ONCE. Hoping they'll patch this soon! I found all the bosses easier, but can't tell if they've been nerfed or it's just because I've *done* them all multiple times on harder levels. I did find that newbie co op buddies from other games got plenty frustrated at how hard it was, so no worries if you want a challenge. My favorite part of this game is co op. You can call in buddies, helpful strangers (I've met more than one good buddy trying to kill a dragon) or NPCs for all of the "required" bosses, and much of the regular part of the game too. The PVP is also great. Yes being invaded can be a pain, though I got invaded much less in this version, maybe just because fewer people are playing. And I'm not into invading others, but *banishing* an invader and sending him home is FUN and dueling is AMAZING. All the different weapons, upgrades and infusions make the variety endless, and pitting your skills against others is addictive. If you hate spoilers or are a loner, you are in for a long and possibly frustrating adventure, or missing some cool things. I think they did place a few "keys" closer to the "lock" to make that a bit less frustrating for new players but I found Dark Souls 2, in general, took some help from someone that has done it before, or a handy internet device for looking up You Tube videos or querying Souls Wikis. Overall, new player or repeat, Scholar of the First Sin is worth a play through or two. And then there is always PVP! Review: Amazing Sequel --- Recommended - This game was amazing! I've played the first one, and I must say that this game is a vast improvement in so many ways! The controls and gameplay feel a lot more fluid, the sheer amount of weapons and items is impressive, and there's so much variety to be had that replay value is phenomenal! As vague as all this is, if you've played the first and enjoyed it, I highly recommend this. If you've played Dark Souls II and are curious is this enhancement is worth it, I have friends who have played it and will agree that it is a vast improvement and, with the addition of all DLC, say that this is well worth the price. If you're new to Dark Souls and wish to jump in here, I say this is as good a spot as any if you don't have any interesting in playing the first. The lore remains the same, but the story isn't connected (contradiction? you bet!) so you won't be missing much if you're just heading in. TL;DR -- Great game that's worth the price for new and returning players (DS1 & DS2). ## Features - All 3 DLC Pack Contents: Crown of the Sunken King, Crown of the Old Iron King, Crown of the Ivory King - Additional NPCs Added For Enhanced Story Experience To Assist Guiding Players Through Level - Parameter Setting Adjustments for Improved Balance - Augmented Item Descriptions - Increase in Maximum Online Players ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00Q03M888 | | Best Sellers Rank | #19,078 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #441 in Xbox One Games | | Compatible Video Game Console Models | Microsoft Xbox One, Microsoft Xbox One S, Microsoft Xbox One X | | Computer Platform | Xbox One | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (946) | | Date First Available | November 25, 2014 | | Department | All Ages | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00722674220187 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 2.4 ounces | | Item model number | 22018 | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Bandai Namco Entertainment America | | Product Dimensions | 0.4 x 5.3 x 6.6 inches; 2.4 ounces | | Publication Date | April 7, 2015 | | Rated | Teen | | Release date | April 7, 2015 | | Type of item | Video Game | | UPC | 722674220187 | ## Images ![Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin - Xbox One - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hSItywc5L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this come out for pc?** A: It will be on PC, yes. Existing PC owners will get some of the features for free with an update when the new release launches, but they will have to upgrade or re-purchase the game for other features such as the upgraded aesthetic, updated matchmaking, 6 player online multiplayer and enhanced overall performance. The DLC will NOT be free for current PC players without upgrading to / buying the new version of the game. **Q: where can i get the first Dark Souls for xbox one? I heard good things about this game** A: You can buy the remastered version here on Amazon. **Q: Is this Dark Souls 2 plus its DLC packs or just the DLC packs?** A: This is Dark Souls 2 with the dlc built into the game. It didn't have codes for dlc so it doesn't matter if its used or not. **Q: Does this game have improved grafics, better than original 360 version ?** A: yes much better. it runs great on xbox one as well, 60fps.
