The design of the area is uncommon for the Souls series, focusing on vertical navigation and avoidance of long-ranged enemy hazards that incentivize a restrained, cautious pace for the player.
Areas from previous games (like Earthen Peak from Dark Souls II and Lost Izalith's roots from the original Dark Souls) can be seen here. The Dreg Heap is a gray, charred confluence of ruined civilizations all slowly sliding and crumbling and decaying. The former is a burnt-out, ash-smothered sprawl of castle and cathedral wreckage comprising the smashed constructs of different ages. The pack sees the player pursuing a character known as Slave Knight Gael to the end of the world while he hunts for the titular "Dark Soul of Humanity".ĭark Souls III: The Ringed City features two primary locations: the Dreg Heap and the eponymous Ringed City. Hidetaka Miyazaki, director of Dark Souls III and creator of the Souls series, said that the story of the two Dark Souls III packs was intended to cover the primary themes of the main game from a new perspective rather than wrap up the series at large. The Ringed City and the preceding content pack, Ashes of Ariandel, were conceived as the final entries in the Souls series. On January 3, 2017, Dark Souls III: The Ringed City was announced. Unlike previous games in the Souls series, Dark Souls III was launched alongside a season pass, confirming that two downloadable content packs were planned from the beginning. It drew favorable reception from critics, with several seeing it as a proper end to the Souls series. Released on March 27, 2017, the content pack was developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. Dark Souls III: The Ringed City is the second of two downloadable content packs for the 2016 action role-playing video game Dark Souls III.
