Shortly following the announcement of Dark Souls Remastered, some additional information regarding the remaster has been revealed. Sadly, it seems like not all of it was correct.

Speaking on Twitter earlier today, well-known member of the Dark Souls community Vaati has revealed that Dark Souls Remastered will not include any new asset based on the Dark Souls 3 engine or any difference in the combat system. Additionally, the PlayStation 4 version of the game will not come with HDR, despite what has been revealed on the PlayStation Blog yesterday.

Earlier today, we have reported that Dark Souls Remastered may be available for half its full price to PC owners if they own a copy of the original release. Bandai Namco has yet to give an official confirmation, so we have to take this with a grain of salt.

Dark Souls Remastered launches this May on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. We will keep you updated on the game as soon as more come in on it, so stay tuned for all the latest news.
