DigitalFoundry has shared some nice footage from the latest stress test build of Dark Souls 3, and is currently working on some technical impressions. You can view the impressive new gameplay below.
After the furious pace of Bloodborne, it's fair to say that returning to Dark Souls 3's defensive style takes some adapting to. As before, your prospects hang on a limited stock of Estus Flasks (which replenish at bonfires) and there are no other consumables in sight. Controls also owe a small debt to From Software's last work. Movement is slightly faster than usual Souls fare, but don't let that fool you; charging into new areas without a shield raised won't get you far.
From Software and Bandai Namco Entertainment have released some beautiful 4K screenshots of Dark Souls 3, which showcase some gorgeous visuals.
