Here’s an in interesting little puzzle for you. From Software have always denied that a next gen version of Dark Souls II exists, leaving it as a current gen title releasing next year. They considered creating a version of the incredibly Dark Souls II for the PS4 and Xbox One but decided against it.
Dark Souls 2 remains a divisive entry in the landmark RPG franchise, but Hidetaka Miyazaki believes it led to the success of Elden Ring.
DS2 was fine. While there was a bit of recycling assets or ideas for bosses, it was a bigger more open Dark Souls. The Fume knight boss is one of the hardest bosses in the series until Sekiro and Elden Ring were released.
The problem with Dark Souls 2 was the same problem when a different director takes over for a sequel to an outstanding movie. It typically (there are exceptions) doesn’t have the feel and vision of the previous movie.
I wouldn’t say Dark Souls 2 is terrible. Had Dark Souls 1 never been a thing and we got this, I think it would have been praised more. The problem is it didn’t have the Miyazaki touch to it and felt pretty derivative. The soundtrack is a banger though.
I like DS 2, might even be my favorite of the 3. But it's a hard sell, there's so many obscure things you need to do to make it an enjoyable experience. So always find it hard to recommend, but it is worth the trouble.

The Nerd Stash: “Whether you’re here to gloat about your victories or to see what the fuss is about, we present to you the hardest bosses in the Souls series.”
If this is true.. Yesssss
I'll get this game the first day it comes out. Bring this to next-gen.
Considering I'll have it for PC this is pretty inconsequential for me. I just, cannot, wait for this game!
i hope it's not a typo.
Wonder what benefits it will have besides looking prettier/running smoothly, or if its just a port will be fine too.
