Be advised though – the fact that is available on Steam does not mean that it will not use Microsoft’s GFWL.

Namco Bandai and FromSoftware have revealed the minimum system requirements for the PC version of Dark Souls.

Get ready for some bad news Dark Souls fans. Yes, the game is coming to the PC and that’s what most of us have been asking all this time. And although some of you misunderstood From Software’s statement about the ‘720p resolution’ restriction, we are happy to report that the game supports resolutions up to 1080p. As we said back when that information got out, From Software was obviously talking about the game’s assets resolution and nothing more.

A while back, we wrote an editorial about the features that should be included in the PC version of Dark Souls. These features were important – in our opinion – and it seems that Dark Souls PC won’t support any of them. Not only that, but the game is said to be locked on 30fps. Wait what? A third person game that is a pain in the a**, where movement is essential, and will be locked on 30fps? Continue reading Namco and From Software in an attempt to kill their own game; Dark Souls PC to be locked on 30fps→

Therefore, we’ll be realistic on our demands and we’ll present you what features the PC version of Dark Souls should support.
