What age rating is Dark Souls?

Great game, a little hard for younger kids.

This game should be 12+ or 9+. The media takes violence too seriously. You are killing demons as an undead knight. I know that tat might leave a bitter taste in your mouth, but if your kid is set on getting this game and is 12 and older at least 9 then it should be fine.
