5 Things to Do Before Dark Souls III: The Ringed City Releases

Get a Character to New Game +

Dark Souls III is a difficult game, however, one of the best ways to actually experience this title is in New Game Plus (NG+). Given that Dark Souls 3 is perhaps one of the easiest entries in this series, bumping the challenge up to NG+ is highly recommended. To many fans this is where the actual Dark Souls experience starts as enemies hit far harder than before and the general gameplay is more punishing.

If you find Dark Souls III’s vanilla campaign too easy, this is something we highly recommend since The Ringed City will likely be the most difficult content released for this title. Plus you can grab a bunch of +1 Rings which not only go towards a trophy/achievement, but are improved versions of their regular difficulty counterparts.
