This new DLC expansion will feature players chasing after the Slave Knight Gael. He is going to the literal end of the world to search for the Dark Soul of Humanity. This happens at the close of the Age of Fire, when the world ends and all of the lands will converge as one.

Players will be making their way to the fabled Ringed City and fight numerous ancient beasts. They will also meet a new cast of characters that are either insane or full of wisdom. These new faces will give them information, sell them armor, weapons, and magic.

According to the game company, the Ringed City is a long lost city filled with new horrors. This means that there will be new challenging opponents for players to overcome before they can finally say that they have finished the game.

The upcoming expansion DLC will be available digitally on the PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One, and PC through Steam. The first expansion of the video game, Ashes of Ariandel, is currently available digitally for download on the same platforms.

On the official website of Bandai Namco, the Season Pass of the video game will allow players to gain access to the two epic DLC packs at a discounted price. The Season Pass is also available on the same platforms for $24.99 only and it will be in digital form.

In other news, the game company announced that there will be a "Dark Souls III The Fire Fades" or the GOTY Edition. It will be available on April 21 for the PS4, Xbox One, and the PC through Steam as well. It will include all of the updates, DLCs, and expansions of the video game.
