This is according to sources speaking with GiantFreakinRobot, which stated as much, but didn't provide additional information.
If the sources are correct, Netflix working on a Dark Souls anime series would be another feather in the streaming service's cap when it comes to video game adaptations.
There's both a live-action and an animated series in the works based on Assassin's Creed; a film based on The Division; animated series' for Splinter Cell, Tomb Raider, and Far Cry; a Bioshock film; the Beyond Good and Evil live-action film; Dragon's Lair which is to be a live-action affair; and there's also a Horizon Zero Dawn project in the works; and Dragon Age: Absolution - just to name a few.
Hollywood has always had a hit-or-miss relationship with video games (hellooooo Uwe Boll!); however, Netflix and HBO seem to do the medium justice - especially with critically and publically acclaimed shows like The Witcher and The Last of Us currently airing. And Amazon is getting in on the fun with its live-action series based on the Fallout games.
While additional information nor confirmation of the Dark Souls anime series was available as of press time, it wouldn't be too far of a stretch to believe a show based on the IP is in development. It's a hit property, very popular, and has plenty of potential for varied storylines.
