    Quoting Miyazaki

    Miyazaki also brings up the new online-only battle royal stage that’s going to be included in the Prepare to Die release. Of course, player-vs.-player combat will still exist in this PC version of Dark Souls just as it does in the current console versions. However, now there will also be a specific area to help facilitate that PvP—potentially standing in for the unofficial locations in the game that already serve as fan-designated dueling areas. At the same time, this addition doesn’t change the focus of the game, nor the overall spirit of what Dark Souls is supposed to be.
    So it seems there will be a PVP-centric area. Any idea how this may be implemented or how exactly it will differ from the standard PVP?

    If it's mostly 1v1's, then I'm PSYCHED. And since it's an "official" PvP location, I think there will be significantly less failed invasions. I'm interested to see how the community responds to this, whether it'll end up more like the Forest or more like the Kiln. My guess is there wont be an area boss to defeat, so as long as you're in human form there you get invaded. At least that way you'll know players are definitely there for PvP. When is it released anyway?

    I think a thread asked this question, and the general consensus was... 'no.'

    Most of us don't have a high grade PC to run it. I know I don't, but I would play it if I did I guess.

    I don't. I believe it will seriously screw with the traditional pvp, not in a good way, The griefers will still gank newbies and the newbies won't have duetists showing them how pvp can be fun.
