We're big fans of the Souls games here at Co-Optimus, as evidenced by our glowing reviews of the series so far, so when a copy of Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin came across my desk, I was more than happy to jump in. With a modified version of the campaign, all DLC included, and a graphical upgrade (for the PC and current-gen consoles, anyway), it's much more than a simple HD remaster; it might just be the best way to experience the game.

If you plan on picking up the PC edition of the upcoming Dark Souls 2 re-release Scholar of the First Sin, you may be able to save some cash if you've already purchased the original game and its add-on content via Steam, publisher Bandai Namco revealed this week.

The enhanced/expanded version of Dark Souls 2 - titled Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin - will be coming out in just a little over a month. We've previously talked about the graphical differences that players will get to enjoy and now we've got some footage of the differences between the two versions running on a Playstation 3 and Playstation 4.

The definitive edition of our 2014 AAA Game of the Year lurks on the horizon, as Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin readies for its April 7th North American launch date. Plunking down your hard earned cash for a game (and potentially DLC) you've already purchased might leave you a little bit sour, but some may its find worth it to relive the sweet, sweet pain on current gen consoles.
