While the industry's current love of rehashing games that are barely a year old is something that we should all be very suspicious of, Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin is so much more than just a simple clean-up job. A more apt description would be Dark Souls II: The Director's Cut; this is a re-imagining of a classic game which has been given a new lease of life thanks to clever changes in enemy and item placement. As such, it's highly recommended to existing fans as the challenge ahead doesn't feel like retreading old ground, while newcomers will benefit from better graphics, smoother performance, and all of the available DLC in one convenient package. Following on the heels of Bloodborne, Dark Souls II is a further affirmation of From Software's immense talent.

Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin is a phenomenal game, taking the spectacular original and giving it fresh lease of life. Creator Hidetaka Miyazaki's grim and beautiful world is truly a wonder to behold, and this new journey into that world is filled with fresh challenges that will test even the most experienced Souls players. You will die over and over and over again, but the key thing is that you will love every minute of it.
