In a new update shared on social media today, FromSoftware and Bandai Namco let fans know that his PC servers for Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin are back up and running. FromSoftware thanked fans for their support during this ordeal and also provided an update for his original Dark Souls 2. Online services have not yet returned for this version of the game, but it has been revealed that they will return “at a later date.”
While this news was encouraging, FromSoftware also had some disappointing news. This means that Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition servers will never come online again. His FromSoftware, which first launched in 2012, said these servers would be permanently shut down due to “aging systems.” Therefore, you cannot play the game in its full original form with other users.
