Dark Souls was one of the most interesting games of 2011, bringing difficulty back to the masses and causing the death of many a controller. However, PC players were miraculously spared from this destruction, left only to imagine Dark Souls’ horrors based on the hollow faces of their console-going friends.

PC players seem to be clamoring for a bit of punishment, as an online petition has amassed 50,000 signatures requesting that From Software make some sort of PC version of Dark Souls. We mentioned the petition last week, and since that time, it has landed additional 10-15,000 signatures. As petitions go, it seems to be a pretty good one.

It’s unclear whether developers respond to fan petitions, but I’m sure From Software is weighing the cost of building a PC port against the potential profits. If there’s money to be made, you can bet Dark Souls will eventually find its way to a gaming PC near you. There’s been no response from the developer as of yet, but we’ll keep you posted.

It’s worth noting that this whole thing was set off by an administrator post on the official forums, stating that an adaptation would be possible with the right amount of demand. Perhaps From was testing the waters?

Would you like to see Dark Souls on your PC?
