Even though Dark Souls II launched in Australia and New Zealand yesterday, players noticed that the online features were not functional.
Just earlier, Bandai Namco AU released a tweet stating that “You can now connect to the DS2 servers.” They also added that “Testing is still ongoing so issues may occur throughout the day.”
Good news! You can now connect to the DS2 servers. Testing is still ongoing so issues may occur throughout the day. Praise the Sun! 🙂

Let us know if you are in the Australia/New Zealand area and if you’ve experienced any issues when trying to play any of the Dark Souls 2 online features.
Meanwhile, have a look at the Dark Souls II The Curse of the Dark trailer.
Dark Souls II released a couple of days ago in North America, Australia and New Zealand for Xbox 360 and PS3, and will release tomorrow, March 14 in Europe. The PC/Steam release will take place on April 25.
