'Dark Souls III's 'Ashes of Ariandel' Expansion Releases in October

First footage of the first of two downloadable expansions.

The first expansion for FromSoftware's 'Dark Souls III' is set to release October 25th, and Bandai Namco has released gameplay footage of it. Called 'Ashes of Ariandel,' the standalone expansion will cost $14.99 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC. Those who are interested in buying all of the downloadable content can save a few dollars by purchasing the 'Dark Souls III' season pass for $24.99. The season pass will also contain the action role-playing game's second expansion that is set to release in "early 2017."

'Ashes of Ariandel' takes place within Ariandel, a frozen land filled with new enemies. Players will attempt to discover what has happened to the area, as Bandai Namco is promising "exciting lore to expand the overarching storyline." The DLC will also add new weapons, armor sets and magic for players to use in combat.

Check out the first gameplay footage for 'Ashes of Ariandel' below:
