News: The first Games with Gold title for June is now available as a free download for Xbox Live Gold members.

Dark Souls is now available as a free download for all Xbox Live Gold members. The first of five games to be free this month, Dark Souls leads the charge with tense dungeon crawling and fearsome enemy encounters. Dark Souls is full of extreme battles, rewarding challenges, nuanced weaponry and magic, and the flexibility to customize each character to suit any desired play style. The online component allows gamers to draw from the collective experience of the Dark Souls community as they either help or sabotage each other on the journey through the Northern Realms to save the land from darkness. With a massive, seamless open world design, Dark Souls encourages deep exploration and an adaptable gameplay experience.

Dark Souls is a action-role playing game developed by FromSoftware. Stricken by the curse of undead, gamers are abolished to the northern realms and must battle hideous demons and unimaginable monsters to collect souls and find the Eternal Flame of Life, which is losing its light, to survive and cure the curse of undead.
