Dark Souls 2 will be given it’s first playable outing in the UK during this weekends Eurogamer Expo 2013 at Earls Court.
The hands is also a competition with players being challenged to find and slay with Mirror Knight. Both the hands on and the challenge are taking place at the Namco Bandai booth at this years Expo.
The full details of the challenge are:
The rules are simple: Each player will have 20 minutes to find and take on the Mirror Knight.* The first person who manages to beat him, will not only become the pride of the whole Eurogamer Expo, they will also walk away with the following Dark Souls II Mirror Knight prize**:
· Dark Souls II Black Armour Edition signed by FROMSOFTWARE
· Guaranteed access to the Dark Souls II limited closed beta
· A PlayStation®3 signed by FROMSOFTWARE
· A twelve month subscription to PlayStation Plus
· Exclusive Dark Souls II T-shirt signed by FROMSOFTWARE
· Exclusive Dark Souls II Poster signed by FROMSOFTWARE
· Turtle Beach Ear Force PX22 Gaming Headset
Fret not, for not all is lost for the runner up. If you do manage to track down and slay the Mirror Knight, but have been pipped to the post by a fellow entrant, your efforts will be recognised in the form of:
· Exclusive Dark Souls II T-shirt
Win or lose, we will also be giving away an A3 Dark Souls II poster to anyone that plays the game whilst stocks last.
There will be one main prize up for grabs on each day, with a total of three available. Failures (like me) will be able to rejoin the queue to try again and if you are lucky/skilled enough to win you won’t be able to enter again.
The Warrior Knight from Dark Souls II will be parading through the Expo and anyone who gets a photo with him and tweets @NamcoBandaiUK is in with a chance of winning some Namco Bandai swag.
Anyone who pre-orders Dark Souls II throughout the duration of Eurogamer Expo 2013 will recieve a limited run Dark Souls II t-shirt. As well as the pre-order bonus the Black Armour and Collectors editions will be available for pre-order.
Dark Souls II is just one of a number of great games that are going to be at Eurogamer this year, I’ll have a preview up tomorrow and check back over the weekend for our coverage.
