Många har ventilerat en oro över att Dark Souls III skulle visa sig vara den sista delen i serien som därmed alltså skulle vara en trilogi. Men seriens producent Hidetaka Miyazaki säger nu att så inte är fallet:
"First of all, this is not the final product for the Dark Souls series. However, I believe it's the turning point for the Dark Souls series. First of all, Dark Souls has a really unique worldview. It's not a good idea, continuously releasing titles for this series because of that factor. And this will probably be the turning point of From Software as a whole - it's the last project we started working on before I became president. It's basically From Software, they started working on this project when it was an older generation. So it's a turning point. It'll be a turning point, but it's not final."
Det väcker såklart frågan om vilken inriktning Dark Souls III ska ta. Miyazaki kommenterade detta utan att egentligen säga särskilt mycket alls:
"From Software is well known not only for the fantasy game, but they've been creating the sci-fi mech game Armored Core and also some Japanese-style games, like the ninja games. So I may introduce a new direction in those genres or themes that From Software has worked on in the past in new, future titles. However, there are so many things that I want to work on, and I'm actually not communicating anything at this moment, so don't call me a liar if they don't happen!"
Dark Souls III släpps till Xbox One, Playstation 4 och PC tidigt nästa år.
