Steam owners were not left in the dark, either. The company announced that players who own Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition are entitled to a 50 percent discount toward their purchase of Remastered on PC.

The discount is an effort to remove said edition from sale on May 8 in preparation for Remastered later that month. However, those who already own this older version can still obtain it from their Steam library at any time in the future.

Dark Souls: Remastered brings refined gameplay, updated visuals, and tons of multiplayer-focused features. For example:

• Proper button configuration
• Password-enabled matchmaking
• Support for 4K resolution at 60fps on PS4 Pro, Xbox One X, and PC
• Native 1080p resolution at 60fps on core PS4 and Xbox One consoles
• Up to six online players (compared to four in the original version)
• Global matchmaking tweaks
• Randomized respawn points
• New, dedicated online servers
• Players can now select the number of usable items
• Ability to switch covenants at Bonfires

Dark Souls: Remastered is scheduled for release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on May 25, with a Nintendo Switch version sometime this summer.
