Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin

Dark Souls II is a 2014 action role-playing game developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Games. The second installment of the Dark Souls series, it is set in the kingdom of Drangleic and follows an undead traveler searching for a cure to their affliction. Despite the new setting, the presentation and gameplay, along with certain lore connections, remain similar to Dark Souls, with notable differences including further penalty for repeated deaths via a "hollowing" mechanic. After initial delays, Dark Souls II was released worldwide on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in March 2014, with a Windows version released the following month.
