Dark Souls 3 garnered praises for its customization, bosses, soundtrack, and atmosphere. Gaming experts said creating a character in Dark Souls 3 gives players an opportunity to test their skills. While the fight with a boss gives the game's uniqueness when it comes to in-game design. It is also said that when a character is in a fight, a sound of an orchestra will flood into the environment. The sound seems to be there as a support to the players. In addition, the pre-ordered version of Dark Souls 3 includes the soundtrack CD with the game.  Lastly, the landscapes from High Wall of Lothric down to the Catacombs of Carthus are impressive. It gives the game the sense of beauty and danger.

However, the only downside of the game is its frame rate. It was found that the frame rate in the game dropped every now and then.
