Elden Ring has seen its fair share of mods, but among them, the standout favorite has to be the seamless co-op mod by the talented modder Yui. Now, fans of Dark Souls 3 have reason to rejoice, as Yui is bringing their magic touch to this beloved title.
FromSoftware’s games have always presented unique challenges, and their approach to online multiplayer seems to aim for making the journey a tad more manageable. After all, tackling the game’s intense battles is a bit more bearable when you have a partner in crime by your side. Yet, as many players know, teaming up with friends can sometimes be more cumbersome than enjoyable. That’s where Yui’s expertise comes into play. Known for their seamless co-op mod for Elden Ring, and having ventured into creating a similar experience for Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, Yui is now on a mission to revolutionize the co-op experience in Dark Souls 3.
In a recently shared video, Yui demonstrated the mod while navigating through Lothric Castle with a friend. For those who haven’t experienced the game yet but keep claiming they’ll play “one day,” consider this your spoiler warning. The video description provides some enticing details: the mod eradicates multiplayer boundaries and ensures your connection persists even after death. It promises a journey from the tutorial to the final showdown without the fuss of rejoining or annoying interruptions. Players can explore themes of synchronized progression and optional invasions, and even tweak the difficulty scaling of enemies to better suit their style. It sounds like a co-op dream come true!
As of now, there’s no specified release date for this exciting mod, so patience will be key for eager fans. In the meantime, there’s something to look forward to—Elden Ring is set to release a new title called Nightreign this year. The game will feature built-in seamless co-op, woven into its design as a boss-centric roguelite, promising a whole new level of replayability.
While the wait may be tough, the prospect of a seamless co-op adventure in Dark Souls 3 surely promises to be worth it. Keep an eye out for further updates from Yui, as their ongoing work continues to shape the gaming landscape for fans of challenging titles.
