    It seems that, like the game's undead protagonist, the idea of Dark Souls 2 DLC cannot die. Or at least, if it does, it will simply rise anew. Dark Souls 2 Producer Takeshi Miyazoe stated back in December that he and his team did not expect there to be DLC for Dark Souls 2, but that position seems to have been reconsidered according to a recent interview with Official Xbox Magazine. "Right now we are concentrating on completing what we've got, but I think there are next steps on how we can expand on Dark Souls 2," Miyazoe said. Whether or not such steps would be taken, Miyazoe noted, would depend on fan feedback. "I'm not really ready to say look forward to more information, but I think the potential is definitely there."

    Producer Takeshi Miyazoe has no plans to release downloadable additions for Dark Souls 2, instead opting to deliver to players a game that needs no extra content. "For Dark Souls 2, we don't even expect any additional downloadable content because we want to deliver a full game, the full experience, to fans who purchase the package from day one," Miyazoe told Edge. "We did do additional content for Dark Souls, but generally downloadable content for Dark Souls 2 is not really being considered. Buy the package and you'll get the full experience, and you'll have as much fun as anybody else." Continuing to buck modern gaming trends, Miyazoe also took a moment to deny the possibility of a free to play Dark Souls entry. "Spending a couple dollars on certain items does not help the experience. So no free-to-play yet!" Dark Souls 2 makes its PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC debut on March 11, 2014.
