Dark Souls Remastered delayed for Nintendo Switch, will arrive later in summer

While no specific reason was given for the delay, the Switch port is being handled by a different studio, and obviously Nintendo's pocket marvel doesn't have quite the grunt of its larger rivals.

On Tuesday, Bandai Namco announced via Twitter that it has pushed back the release date of "Dark Souls: Remastered" for the Nintendo Switch.

Either way, Dark Souls Remastered will still be launching on PS4 and Xbox One on May 25. The Dark Souls series is notorious for having extremely hard, unforgiving gameplay and mysterious plots. Originally meant to release in late May, the Switch release has since been knocked back to "this summer". The good news is that the extended wait shouldn't be too much longer, as it sounds like the game has only been delayed by a couple of months.

In a followup tweet, the publisher added, "Rest assured, this time will ultimately be used to improve your journey to Lordran". Not only that, the video game company has also made a decision to delay the release of the Solaire of Astora amiibo. Re-experience the critically acclaimed, genre-defining game that started it all. The game and its amiibo are now hitting sometime later this summer. Gamers can view additional information for the Nintendo Switch version here, and pre-orders are still available.

It's time to move away from the Dark Souls franchise.
