Dark Souls II (Greatest Hits)

Dark Souls II: Greatest Hits (PS3, 2014) is the definitive edition of FromSoftware’s divisive sequel, bundling the base game with all three Crown of the Sunken King DLCs—adding brutal challenges like Fume Knight and Sir Alonne. While its world design lacks the original’s cohesion, the diverse builds, refined PVP, and NG+ surprises (like red phantom invaders) offer endless depth. The PS3 version runs smoothly, though Scholar of the First Sin (PS4/PC) later overhauled enemy placements. A must-own for masochists.
