From Software has announced that the Nintendo Switch version of Dark Souls: Remastered will be available from October 19, 2018. The announcement was made on Twitter through the developer’s official account. “Finally we hope you can look forward to playing Dark Souls wherever, whenever you wish,” the message read.
The Switch version was originally scheduled to launch alongside the PS4 and Xbox One versions of Dark Souls: Remastered, but publisher Bandai Namco announced that it would be delayed. Alongside the game’s delay, the release of the Solaire of Astora Amiibo was also postponed.
Dark Souls: Remastered was originally revealed for Switch during a Nintendo Direct in January. The Switch version renders the game at 1080p resolution with 30 FPS when docked and played on the TV. Along with the main game, the package also features the critically acclaimed Artorias of the Abyss DLC. In terms of tweaks, the remaster delivers an improved framerate and resolution from the original.
