Additionally, this never affected Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, as it does not have an online feature.
Of course, the exploits didn't affect the console versions, and hence, their servers have been running for the past 10 months. Now that servers are slowly being restored, we could see the entire Dark Souls franchise being made available with a discount during the seasonal Steam sales or the Bandai Namco publisher sale. With the online servers out of the equation, FromSoftware putting the games up for sale would imply that they are selling incomplete versions. While players adore the world-building and ingeniously designed bosses in the Dark Souls franchise, veterans prefer spending a good chunk of their time in the PvP arena - challenging other players to a 1v1 battle and experimenting with different builds, essentially serving as an extension of the game. It is also worth mentioning that neither game has gone up for sale on Steam since the security exploit was discovered. “Work on the restoration of online services for the PC version of Dark Souls Remastered is still underway, and we will inform you when they return,” a follow-up tweet reads. While the servers for Dark Souls: Prepare To Die Edition have permanently gone offline, work progresses steadily on the newer Remastered version.
However, besides the minor disconnections and balancing issues in PvE (offline), the game hasn't posed any outstanding problems. During the downtime, players were worried about how the exploit would affect Elden Ring's launch, since its PvP probably ran on the same infrastructure. However, it wasn't until August 25, that online servers for Dark Souls 3 were restored to full potency. Following several reports, the studio shut down its online servers, in light of fixing the issue. The streamer claims to have seen Microsoft Powershell opening by itself, indicating that some external user took control of his system. Towards the end of his stream, the game crashed and started playing a text-to-speech message criticising his skills in-game. Our thanks for your continued patience and support. Online features for the base version of #DarkSouls II for PC (DX9) will be made available at a later date. Online features for the PC version of Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin (DX11) have been reactivated.
