Huge news on the way, folks. 'What is it?" You ask? Well, you're going to have to wait to find out. pic.twitter.com/ivrzL0Z7N3 — Dark Souls (@DarkSoulsGame) August 17, 2016

The team behind the fist-bitingly difficult action-RPG took to Twitter to tease that "huge news is on the way," directly addressing the community of Dark Souls players known as "Ashen Ones."The tweet was first spotted by Gamespot , and while Bandai Namco has not officially said that the "major announcement" will be DLC, it was previously suggested that the game's first piece of DLC would be unwrapped this fall.If August 24 is the announcement date where we find out more details on what's under the hood, that would fit in nicely with the release schedule.On top of that, in February we reported on a $25 Dark Souls Season Pass that surfaced on the Xbox Store. Among other things, it indicated that there will be two DLC packs made available for Dark Souls 3 in the coming months.We'll be keeping an eye out for more announcements, so check back on August 24 for the full story.

Alysia Judge is video host at IGN UK. She wonders whether this announcement is really just a new range of Dark Souls plushies. Ponder with her on Twitter.
