Kadokawa and Yen Press Announce the Simultaneous Publication of an Original Dark Souls Novel
NEW YORK, NY (6/16/22)— franchise a phenomenon an opportunity to revisit the epic adventure and settings that captured their imagination through fresh eyes.
In an underground tomb, a man who should have been dead awakens in the dark, gradually regaining his senses—
He has forgotten his past, including his name. Given the great pains taken to insure his confinement, his revival may have been anticipated, but the remains of the grave robber that is his sole companion may give a clue as to his reawakening. When the corpse of the thief rises against him, a sorcerer's instincts emerge, and he puts it down with a flash of light from his palm. With this gesture, the memories of the cadaver flicker through him, rekindling a sense of himself…
The desert night stretches out beyond the graveyard, and the starry sky tells the sorcerer that a long time has ed since his death. Naming himself Ferranos after the meaningless word graven outside his tomb and armed with a dagger of a failed grave robber, he embarks on an epic adventure guided by fate.
DARK SOULS: MASQUE OF VINDICATION will be published globally both in print and digitally on October 25, 2022 by Yen Press in English, marking the first simultaneous print release between the two companies.
