dark souls (series)
Dark Souls is a trilogy of action role-playing games directed by Miyazaki Hidetaka of FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. The series began with the release of Dark Souls and has seen two sequels, Dark Souls II and Dark Souls III. The Dark Souls series is the spiritual successor to Demon's Souls.
Dark Souls takes place in the fictional kingdom of Lordran, where players assume the role of a cursed undead character who begins a pilgrimage to discover the fate of their kind. The player fights against knights, dragons, phantoms, demons, and other monstrous or supernatural entities. The accretion, loss, and recovery of souls are central to the narrative and gameplay of Dark Souls games. These games are linked through their setting and an overarching cyclic narrative centering around fire. At the end of each game, characters may reignite the "first flame" or allow it to fade, recurring a choice others have made before.
