DARK SOULS™ II: Scholar of the First Sin
Rating: 4.8 (97 votes cast)
Note: This is the enhanced 64-bit version, with updated graphics and added features.
Gamers are in for a big surprise in DARK SOULS™ II: Scholar of the First Sin. An unforgettable journey awaits you in a breathtaking world where each dark corner and unexpected encounter will test your resolve. Go beyond what you thought was possible and discover incredible challenge and intense emotional reward. Whether you’ve previously played DARK SOULS™ II, or are new to the award-winning franchise, you are in for an entirely different experience with this exclusive, “Director’s Cut” version of the game.
The definitive edition of DARK SOULS™ II. DARK SOULS™ II: Scholar of the First Sin includes all the DARK SOULS™ II content released to-date in one package and much more!
A brand new experience and challenge. Enemy placement has been overhauled, resulting in a completely different play dynamic than experienced before. The safe zones that some players remembered are no longer safe! A new NPC invader called Forlorn will also play a key role in changing the gameplay experience. Hardened players will have to forget everything they thought they knew about DARK SOULS™ II.
Online play has been enhanced with the addition of a special item to regulate souls acquired in battle - it’s now possible to match up more consistently online. The number of players who can participate in an online session has also been increased, from 4 to 6 people, completely changing the online play dynamic.
DARK SOULS™ II: Scholar of the First Sin brings the franchise’s renowned obscurity & gripping gameplay to a new level. Join the dark journey and experience overwhelming enemy encounters, diabolical hazards, and unrelenting challenge.
It does come with all the DLCs. As someone who has played ALL the Souls games (except Blood borne), the best game is obviously gking to be subjective. Dark Souls 2 is a great game if you don't have it, get it.

Souls fan will say this was the least preferred souls game out of 4, but IMO this was the best. Hot for the price, shame I am looking for a PS4 copy myself.
I was under the impression Scholar of the First Sin includes all the DLC from the season pass, is that not how it works? Either way I'm getting towards the end of Dark Souls: PtDE so this is actually pretty tempting (although I have a feeling it'll only get cheaper with DS 3 out).

Turns out this is already included on the Scholar of the first sin so you dont need to buy this one.

I'm not quite sure either as I'm one of the ppl who are waiting on the sidelines to jump into Dark Souls series.
I also thought DS2 SFS also includes all DLC but price does not reflect that. Perhaps some DS veteran would share some of their knowledge on this.
You could be right for waiting for DS3 comes out. Trying to keep myself from buying but its a tempting price.

Nope. Dark Souls 2 and Dark Souls 2 Scholar of the First Sin are considered two different games. If you were to buy normal dark souls 2 you need to buy the season pass, but SotFS is all inclusive. As far as I'm aware you also can't play multiplayer between the two or transfer saves to make it even more confusing.

I enjoyed DS2 but I hate the remixed version of Scholar of the First Sin, unfortunately this is the cheapest version of the game as the vanilla version is 2-3x the price :disappointed:

It does include everything. It's like getting the Game of Year/Ultimate/Complete edition of a game, except Scholar of the First Sin is also a completely remastered version of Dark Souls II, taking advantage of 64bit and DirectX 11. In console land, the original Dark Souls II was released on Xbox 360 and PS3 and Scholar of the First Sin was the Xbox One/PS4 remaster. (I had the same question when I bought it recently.)
Remixed? Hate? What? Why? What's changed in this version apart from the technical improvements? (Genuine question as I haven't played either yet - still struggling at the beginning of Demon's Souls!)

Scholar adds so much to the standard game just get it if you havent and wait dor 3 to drop in price. 3 is very short
