About this expansion

Dark Souls: The Board Game – Darkroot Expansion is a 2018 expansion for 1–4 players, bringing new adventures to Dark Souls: The Board Game.

Enter the Darkroot, a lush yet foreboding region where danger waits among the trees. Scarecrows, giant stone warriors, and the very plants of the forest stand sentinel, hindering any heroes foolish enough to brave this realm.

Darkroot is also the final resting place of Artorias, a deadly revenant and relentless swordsman. He is guarded eternally by his companion, the Great Grey Wolf Sif, creating a setting filled with ominous legends and formidable threats.

The expansion adds new content for players seeking fresh challenges in their Dark Souls adventures. New enemies expand the dangers heroes may face, while new encounter cards use those enemies to create additional encounters across the Darkroot.

  • New enemies inspired by the Darkroot region
  • New encounter cards featuring those enemies
  • New treasure cards for characters to discover
  • Components for two new main boss encounters

These additions give players more options when exploring the game’s adventures and provide fresh challenges to overcome. The treasure cards offer new discoveries for characters, while the two main boss encounters further broaden the threats available in the game.

Designed for use with the core Dark Souls: The Board Game, Darkroot Expansion enriches the experience with a distinctive forest setting and a selection of new enemies, encounters, treasures, and bosses. For players ready to face the dangers of Darkroot, this expansion offers new ways to continue their journey into the world of Dark Souls.
