Dark Souls II

A third-person dark fantasy action RPG set in the kingdom of Drangleic. Combat is about timing, stamina and choosing the right weapon, and you explore a linked world full of tough enemies and bosses. Co-op is part of the design, and the game is demanding from the start. Is it your kind of game?
