Dark Souls 3: The Ringed City DLC Announced

Bandai Namco and From Software have announced the second and final DLC for Dark Souls 3, titled The Ringed City. The announcement coincided with the above trailer.

Dark Souls 3: The Ringed City

Fear not the dark, ashen one. Journey to the world’s end to search for the Ringed City and encounter new lands, new bosses, new enemies with new armor, magic and items. Experience the epic final chapter of a dark world that could only be created by the mind of Hidetaka Miyazaki. This new adventure has players chasing after the Slave Knight Gael to the literal end of the world as he searches for the Dark Soul of Humanity.

At the close of the Age of Fire, as the world ends and all lands converge upon themselves, a lone adventurer descends into the madness of the earth and uncovers the secrets of the past. As players make their way to the fabled Ringed City they will encounter ancient beasts, a new cast of characters teetering on the edge of insanity, new armor, weapons, magic, and at the bottom of it all, a long lost city filled with new horrors for players to overcome.

Trailer Transcription

The close of the Age of Fire.

Descriptions from Images Left to Right, Top to Bottom

  1. The last survivor of Demons who were born from the Flame of Chaos, dwelling below the land. With a grotesque look having been exposed to poison, their flame is fading away…
  2. When a city falls into an Abyss, Locusts will then arise. It is said that they will feast on anything and everything that is in their path.
  3. Vicious knight swinging a giant greatsword. Sunken in a swamp, his body is swollen with every cavity bloated. Instead of having a head, a clump of darkness dwells and with armor half decayed.
  4. Dreg Heap, the furthest end of the world. Various remains from different historical periods have accumulated over time, resulting in high towers.
  5. A traditional city for the Pygmies, called the Ringed City. Half covered in foliage, the city looks desolated with ancient ruins.
  6. A pyromancy which tears down the enemies with the great fan of flame. Pyromancers, who once lived in an ancient land with their greatest fan weapons and enchanting looks, seem to still exist.
  7. Unusually shaped paired greatshields resembling great doors. The firmly closed door will help to block a myriad of attacks from the enemies.
  8. This shield, formed by the head of a descendant of an Archdragon, harks of the ancient dragon slayers. Even the descendant of an Archdragon perishes not, the skill restores its former strength.
  9. A tower rises above the clouds, at its top stands a well-known sword.
  10. A traditional city for the Pygmies, called the Ringed City. A portion of the bridge is curved, creating a wall on the inner side. Countless tombstones line the top of the wall made of rock.
  11. A Gray Giant who has existed since the Archdragon was found. The Giant used to be a judicator, working under the Gods.
  12. A man with a plate-armor helm you can encounter at Dreg Heap. He states that he’s an amnesiac hollow and calls himself “Rap.” Maybe he could be a reliable fellow…

We’ll be updating this article with any screenshots and information as they come so keep it bookmarked and keep checking back!

  1. Oh my, interesting. Do my eyes spy a sword of avowal’s tip there at 00:45 and 00:50? Then the earthen peak in the next scene with the windmill… A pilgrim butterfly! Finally!

    This seems like a dlc to wrap up the lore, but alas, not a single dragon =(

    Also, this comes to mind, the burning abyss represented by that gargoyle demon with eaten wings…

    edit: That curved greatsword <3

  2. one last hype.
