Bandai Namco And From Software Make Their Last Big Salvo Before Signing Off On 'Dark Souls 3' [VIDEO]
ByBandai Namco and From Software's action role-playing game "Dark Souls 3" has just received its last major update, the game's Patch App version 1.13 has finally arrived today, April 12. The latest update has added new arena, new level, and lots of improvements on board.
Today, "Dark Souls 3" fans will be receiving its final gift from the game publisher Bandai Namco and developer From Software. The game's Patch App version 1.13 will be focusing on the game's PvP mode, with some changes to individual weapons. Additionally, the update has also added significant changes to the systems that govern invasions and summons, the VG247 reported.
The new Patch App version 1.13 adds a new flat PvP arena to the Undead Match PvP list, developers called it "Round Plaza." Also in the Patch 1.13, Dark Souls players now will be able to summon a total of two Darkmoon Blades or Blue Sentinels, which levels has also been increased. The action RPG will receive an increased drop rate of "Seed of a Giant Tree," however, the developer has reduced the number that can be carried. The newly released Patch 1.113 will make it easier to be interrupted when using weapon skills, according to VG247.
Another huge changes made is on the summon system. If the players have invaded a place in the "Dark Souls 3" belongs to a member of "The Way of Blue Covenant," then they will have to deal with a Blue Sentinel, which now easier to summon. The developer also added that if a white phantom dies during an invasion, the host would not be able to summon another white phantom for a specific amount of time, meaning they need to wait for right time.
However, there's one big problem on the patched summon system, the patch notes do not specifically state how the level differences will affect blue summons, From Software has been tight-lipped about this. So expect no words or any further comment about this.
"Dark Souls 3" has also added new values for matchmaking when summoning other Dark Souls players. Reports also said that the occurring bug and glitches in the game have already been fixed, and the bug about the invisible Spear of the Church along with another bug where players could cast Force have already been removed. The developer has also stated that the bug where spell buffs and resins could be applied has also been fixed, the PC Invasion reported.
In addition to the new values for matchmaking, the game developer has also made some necessary adjustments for the weapon infusion levels for "Dark Souls 3." The latest update also introduced altered summoning ranges for invasions and multiplayer of all types, giving Dark Souls players one last big gaming experience. Players can check the Level values for summons and invasions on the VG247 website.
Finally, the developers and publisher of "Dark Souls 3," have already confirmed to the world "The Ringed City" would be the game's last expansion DLC, their final salvo. After the Dark Souls, the two are reportedly in the works to pursue a brand new IP, though nothing specific has been revealed to the public.
Bandai Namco and From Software's new Patch 1.13 will hit "Dark Souls 3" on April 12 on PS4 and PC. However, for still no clear reason, the update will be late on Xbox One, which set on April 4.
