IGN is reporting that Namco-Bandai announced in behind-closed-doors presentation of Dark Souls that the game will not have any downloadable content, and will ”be a stand-alone, static package.”
This was revealed by a Namco representative, who also stated that From Software’s game will be released in October.
Dark Souls will reportedly take around 50-60 hours to complete, with a region three times the size of the map of predecessor Demon’s Souls. Dark Souls will also double the spells, items, weapons, armor and other equipment available of Demon’s Souls.
