A small team of prolific Dark Souls modders has released a demo for their sequel to the original game with a mod titled Dark Souls: Nightfall. While the original game was released in 2011, its legacy and design continue to inspire countless video games. Dark Souls won Ultimate Game of All Time at last year's Joystick Awards, beating out world-renowned games like Minecraft andZelda: Breath of the Wild. The game's critical and commercial success paved the way for two sequels and a series of hit games like Bloodborne, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and the upcoming Elden Ring. However, many modders continue to find new and exciting ways to enjoy everything the first Dark Souls adventure offers and add to it.
While the original Dark Souls has received a Remastered edition, increasing the game's performance for modern consoles, fans have been modding the game and adding new features for years. Modders can accomplish wonders like successfully fixing broken games that no longer received support from their developers and making changes that can make a classic game feel brand new again. One modder successfully transformed Dark Souls into a more hardcore RPG with The Ascension Mod by upgrading the game's difficulty, weapon, and armor status effects and introducing new gameplay mechanics. One team of modders has decided to take modding to a new level, and instead of making changes to the classic game, they are looking to use Dark Soul's assets to create a new experience.
