Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition is promoted via Steam for the coming weekend, which means that gamers can get the punishing action role-playing game experience with a 50 percent price cut over its normal price until Monday at 10 AM Pacific Time.

The game was first launched on consoles and the Prepare to Die version includes improved mechanics and more content for fans to enjoy.

The official description reads, "Prepare for a new, mysterious story, centered around the the world of Lodran, but most of all, prepare to die. You will face countless murderous traps, countless darkly grotesque mobs and several gargantuan, supremely powerful demons and dragons bosses."

The development team at From Software and publisher Namco Bandai are currently working on Dark Souls 2, which will expand the features of the series and will use a new game world.
