    Not fun, bad game design, uses cheap trics to scale the difficulty. Frustrating.

    Near perfect game etc etc etc. all you need to know is perfect performance on the Switch. Doubly awesome if you’ve got OLED (most of this game is in the dark).

    Few games have the capacity to change you the way Dark Souls does, and this is an excellent port of the remaster. It still contains all the frustrating flaws of the original game, but this was a huge improvement for From Software over Demon's Souls, and they would later perfect the formula with later games. Dark Souls is not an easy experience. My first playthrough took 110 hours andFew games have the capacity to change you the way Dark Souls does, and this is an excellent port of the remaster.

    It's dark souls! You know how it is. But fyi, for anyone buying the switch port just wanted to put it out there that there are almost no summons, though I assume there's more on steam and ps4. Also do not get excited about pvp, it is not good here.

    You know it, it's dark souls, but portable. Runs astonishingly well on the switch. An excellent entry point into the series for newcomers, and a version to take everywhere for souls veterans.

    Uff juegazo 10/10 me lo pase como 3 veces, siento que ya había jugado el titulo sin haberlo jugado antes y esto es porque trascendió desde su lanzamiento original y nada mejor que pasarse este titulo en portatil.

    It’s another edition of the same old thing. One that has nothing to offer apart from what should be offered in the least – and still doesn’t accomplish it well enough to be worthy of any praise. [13/2018, p.76]

    There are technical limitations inherent with the Switch version of Dark Souls, but if you're from a time where you can fight through it, you should be OK. [Issue #37 – January/February 2019, p. 73]

    Dark Souls Remastered on the Nintendo Switch brings a new kind of revelry to the moment-to-moment victories like finding a bonfire or killing a boss.
