It is both online and offline. It's online features however are pretty innovative.
It's basically this: you are a lone warrior set out on a grand quest. It is mainly you versus the environment, the monsters, bosses, and the game can therefore perfectly be played offline. But this game is tough, and sometimes a little help could come in handy. If you are online, you can "summon" up to 2 players to help you out in online co-op. Co-op is obviously the friendly part of the online features. In order to summon players, you have to have a certain state of being alive generated by an item.
But this state of being alive has a downside. The less friendly feature is the following; Dark Souls gives players the option to invade other players' worlds without any sort of permission to do so. They will hunt you down in a battle to the death. Of course, once you're far enough into the game you too will be able to become the invader. It is epic.
Not being in that state of being alive disables these online features, so you'll be safe from invaders, but also excluded from help. An item brings you back in that state.
