Developer: PC version of Dark Souls up to Namco-Bandai

The petition for a PC version of the popular hardcore action title Dark Souls, which was begun last January, has reached 90,000 signatures. However, despite some coy urging from publisher Namco-Bandai, no announcement regarding such a title has been made yet.


Developer From Software can do nothing but shrug its shoulders at the situation. When asked about making a PC version of Dark Souls, head of R&D Masanori Takeuchi stated, "That's going to be a decision left up to the publisher, Namco Bandai, but yes, we have seen the comments and we do know of the desire for a PC version."

It's strange, since Namco-Bandai stated outright it was "impressed" by the petition and the desire for a PC port. Fans hope surely the publisher is impressed enough to actually start working on one.

Dark Souls was released last October 2011 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 and earned an 8.0/10 score from Strategy Informer's review.

Oh come on now! Not acting on it now is just plain cruel!

..or simply suicidal. Teasing players like that and not act on it might spell disaster once they realize they want more money and more sales - and the slighted PC gamers say F and U.... ;)


...or they just go ahead and buy it anyway...
