Dark Souls III Ashes of Ariandel DLC Officially Revealed and Detailed

Following yesterday’s leak, Bandai Namco has officially announced the first post-launch downloadable content for Dark Souls III.

Dubbed “Ashes of Ariandel,” the first of two expansions for the game will launch across PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on October 25th. Featured above, you can view the expansion’s announcement trailer.

A season pass for the game will set you back $24.99, however if you just want Ashes of Ariandel, that will cost $14.99 by itself. The second expansion for the game is coming sometime early next year.


Here are some new screenshots for the expansion:

You can find a brief rundown on the expansion below, via Bandai Namco:


Return to the world of Dark Souls III and uncover a terrible secret that lies within the frozen land of Ariandel. Players will find themselves steeped in a brand new environment filled with terrifying new enemies, challenges, and exciting lore to expand the overarching Dark Souls III storyline.

Players are tasked to enter the land of Ariandel and defeat the evil within to uncover the mystery of what has caused the land to become defiled. In addition to adding a new environment to Dark Souls III, the Dark Souls III: Ashes of Ariandel expansion will also include new weapons, armor sets, and magic for players to discover and experiment with, as well as new features for the game’s wildly popular competitive multiplayer mode.
