Dark Souls is shaping up to be one of the more difficult games of 2011, especially if it holds true to its roots in Demon’s Souls. Â To make it even worse, From Software is going to get proactive on a whole different level against people that get their hands on the game early.
Recent reports suggest that the developer is going to be fighting street date breaches in a creative way. Â Those who manage to get their hands on a copy of the game early will get a surprise when they fire up the game. Â From Software will be releasing and overpowered character into the game world called the Black Phantom. Â These foes are completely maxed out stat-wise, and should put a damper on any pre-release play.
The game is set to hit Japan this week, but getting your hands on the game early might not be all its cracked up to be. Â Dark Souls will hit US shelves on October 4th.
