First UK hands on with Dark Souls II, including competition and prize giveaway to the UK’s best players
Fans of the original Dark Souls have been excited ever since the announcement of Dark Souls II to get their hands on it and experience FROMSOFTWARE’S latest instalment in the franchise, so now, after all the waiting, they will at last be able to play this game.
For those who are brave or stupid enough to take on the infamous Mirror Knight task, which will take place at the Namco Bandai Games booth, inevitable death will go to the losers and the winners will be rewarded with prizes.
These are the rules: “Each player will have 20 minutes to find and take on the Mirror Knight.The first person who manages to beat him, will not only become the pride of the whole Eurogamer Expo, they will also walk away with the following Dark Souls II Mirror Knight prize:
· Dark Souls II Black Armour Edition signed by FROMSOFTWARE
· Guaranteed access to the Dark Souls II limited closed beta
· A PlayStation ®3 signed by FROMSOFTWARE
· A twelve month subscription to PlayStation Plus
· Exclusive Dark Souls II T-shirt signed by FROMSOFTWARE
· Exclusive Dark Souls II Poster signed by FROMSOFTWARE
· Turtle Beach Ear Force PX22 Gaming Headset”
If you are able to find and kill the Mirror Knight, but someone else did it before you, then your efforts will be rewarded in the form of an exclusive Dark Souls II T-shirt
Win or lose, they will also be giving away an A3 Dark Souls II poster to anyone that plays the game whilst stocks last.
Dark Souls II very own Warrior Knight will be there. As he marauds around the Namco Bandai Games booth, the Warrior Knight promises to be as distressing in real life as he is in the game. But, don’t let that stop you from asking him for a chat he’s always available for a photo. Tweet @NamcoBandaiUK your best photo with the Warrior Knight including #EurogamerKnight
They will then pick the best photos and announce the winners on Monday 30th September. The best 3 entrants will win themselves some Namco Bandai Games goodies
Not only that, Namco Bandai Games and GAME have teamed up to bring an exclusive, 4-days-only Dark Souls II, pre-order offer. For anyone that pre-orders a copy of Dark Souls II at the Eurogamer Expo, they will receive a limited Dark Souls II T-shirt. These T-shirts are extremely rare, so make sure you get yours before they disappear forever.
Both Black Armour Edition and Collector Edition will be available to pre order at the show. You can also see the Statue of the Knight that features in the incredible collector edition at GAME’S stand.
Players will have the chance to redeem themselves should they lose at their first attempt. To re-enter the competition, players must simply join the queue and wait until their next turn.
Thanks for reading.
