Elden Ring Mod for Seamless 4-Player Co-op Enters Beta This Week
A PC mod that brings seamless, four-player co-op with shared game progression to Elden Ring is entering beta this week.

Summoned players will even stick around after the host dies, putting the defeated player into spectator mode, unlike Elden Ring's normal system that returns them home. If the beta is a success, this essentially means that PC players can start and play through the entirety of Elden Ring with up to three friends in a shared game world.
The mod also takes into account other limitations of normal Elden Ring multiplayer by allowing mounts to be summoned by all players, and "friendly fire" can even be activated by turning on a PvP mode. Item drops from bosses will be applied to all players, progress is shared, and more.
The beta begins on May 27 but LukeYui didn't give any indication as to how long it will last or when the official release date for the mod will be.

People have played it using a Fisher Price toy, the Nintendo Switch Ring Fit controller, and someone has even made a working VR version of the game.
