Dark Souls III has a release date and more

At this stage of the game, I don't think the Dark Souls titles need a whole lot (or really, any) introduction. We have been huge fans since the original Demon's Souls and that has not changed over the last couple of excellent Dark Souls releases. Let's just say - we're excited for this.
