'Dark Souls 3' DLC release date news 2016: Upcoming 2 DLCs mark end of game series?

It appears that the hit video game "Dark Souls 3" is about to meet its conclusion with the arrival of the next two DLC packs. The first of the two expansion sets is expected to be released this year, while the anticipated final content pack for the game will arrive sometime in 2017. Nevertheless, these new additions will make the already thrilling gameplay of "Dark Souls 3" even more engaging. 

The arrival of "Dark Souls 3" has set some major changes in the traditional "Dark Souls" universe, capturing the interests of PlayStation 4 and Xbox One console gamers. According to the latest reports, the anticipated arrival of the two DLCs will further raise the action and intensity of the game. Players could not help but expect more good things coming to the game, although the game developer of "Dark Souls 3," Hidetaka Miyazaki, has kept mum regarding the contents of the new DLCs. Still, there are speculations that the upcoming "Dark Souls 3" DLCs will be an interesting mix of "Demon's Souls" and "Bloodborne," which were previously developed by Miyazaki.

The game publisher of "Dark Souls 3," Bandai Namco, has enjoyed massive success ever since the game title was released back in March this year. Almost four months after its launching, Bandai Namco was able to ship as huge as three million game copies worldwide. It was a groundbreaking experience for the Japanese-based game studio that further set the bar higher in the economic and marketing aspects of a virtual game title.

Unfortunately, for those who have just begun to root for the latest fantasy action role-playing game (ARPG), the additional contents for "Dark Souls 3" may very well the last, and it is expected that the arrival of the new DLC in 2017 will also mark the end of the game.

"Dark Souls 3" has seen a huge amount of sales compared to its predecessors in the "Dark Souls" game series. IGN reported that the current "Dark Souls" installment has a record 61 percent increase in sales, compared to the total sales garnered by "Dark Souls 2." For some points in time, "Dark Souls 3" became the top best-selling game in the United Kingdom. The tangible copies of the game are the only ones attributed to the numbers, but the total number of sales is expected to be even bigger when the digital sales are also included in the figures, not to mention if the remaining DLC packs of the game are already out.
