Attention Elden Ring Co-op Mod Fans: The Modder Returns with a New Dark Souls 3 Mod

Elden Ring’s seamless co-op mod by Yui has taken the community by storm, and now, Yui’s channeling that creative energy into Dark Souls 3.

FromSoftware’s multiplayer design often sparks debate among gamers. It’s designed to ease the gameplay with the aid of a fellow player. After all, nothing beats the thrill of two silent heroes nimbly dodging their way to triumph. However, the process of joining up with friends isn’t always smooth sailing. That’s where Yui steps in. Known for the wildly popular seamless co-op mod for Elden Ring, and having tackled Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, this dedicated modder has announced their latest project: a seamless co-op mod for Dark Souls 3.

In a sneak peek, Yui released footage showcasing the mod in action. Playing alongside a friend, they tackled Lothric Castle—word to the wise, spoilers are lurking for those of you who keep meaning to start the game! According to the video description, the mod eliminates all multiplayer barriers, maintaining connections even after death. It enables you and your friends to play together from the initial tutorial right through to the game’s conclusion, all with synchronized progress, and without the bother of constant resummoning or interruptions. Invasions? They’re optional, switched on by default, and you can tweak the multiplayer difficulty as per your preference. It’s everything you’d want from such a mod!

As of now, there isn’t any specific release date, so patience is key. If you’re itching for something new, keep an eye out for the upcoming release of Elden Ring: Nightreign later this year. This version includes seamless co-op as standard, though it promises a boss-focused roguelite experience that may challenge its replayability.
