From Software's hardcore dungeon crawler has been long rumored to be receiving a PC port. Dark Souls' release seemed assured, given a recent tease by PC Powerplay magazine. Well, here's more proof of the game's existence: the latest issue of PC Action features the game on its cover.

According to a report in NeoGAF, the magazine says that the PC release will be a rather straightforward port of the console original. However, there will be some bonus content to look forward to. Namely, there are two additional bosses: the Guardian of the Tomb and the Black Dragon.

The PC version should be released in August. Shacknews contacted Namco Bandai for further confirmation, but did not receive a response.
