Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition gets a new Gamescom trailer

Dead again.

Namco Bandai has released a new trailer for From Software's Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition - shown below.

The upcoming PC release - due on 24th August - will contain the new Artorias of the Abyss expansion, which will also be available as DLC for the console versions at an unspecified date.

The new trailer shows off a few new bosses - or at least I think they're bosses - it's hard to tell when the main game has hydras the size of a football field as regular enemies.

For more information on Dark Souls' PC version or Artorias of the Abyss, our Thomas Morgan recently went hands-on with it and called the expansion "a worthy encore," though he had some concerns about the PC port's performance.
