• 14 years later, the best way to play Dark Souls is with the new Seamless co-op mod - 11 May 2025

  Thanks to the efforts of one glorious modder, there’s a whole new reason to play Dark Souls again. The Seamless co-op mod , released in April, lives up to its name just like it did for Elden Ring . No longer do you have to suffer FromSoftware’s bizarre multiplayer functionality—you can finally take an uninterrupted road trip through Lordran with your friends like god intended, and I lost a whole weekend doing just that...

• Prepare for Elden Ring Nightreign as Dark Souls Seamless Co-op arrives - 12 April 2025

  While FromSoftware is set to imminently reinvent its multiplayer approach with Elden Ring Nightreign, nothing beats the thrill of the original Dark Souls . The simple act of etching your soapstone into the ground and waiting to be summoned, or calling on a random player to help you finally defeat Ornstein and Smough, is unlike any other online experience. If you want to play through the entire land of Lordran with a friend, however, that's when things get difficult. Constant roadblocks and resets make loading into a friend's world a challenge all by itself, but not anymore. The modder behind the most popular Elden Ring mod of all time, which makes online play much simpler, has finally released a version of it for the first Dark Souls. Read the rest of the story...

• Wahey, Dark Souls Remastered's seamless co-op mod is out now, provided you don't mind potentially having to battle some bugs on top of the bosses - 11 April 2025

  Damn, that was fast. When modder Yui announced last month that they were working on a seamless co-op mod for Dark Souls: Remastered , but were still early on in the development process, I figured it might not arrive before Elden Ring Nightreign drops next month. But, lo and behold, here it is! Read more

• The modder who added seamless coop to Elden Ring and Dark Souls 3 is now doing the same with Dark Souls: Remastered - 30 March 2025

  He's doing it again. FromSoftware modding savant Yui, creator of the wildly popular Elden Ring seamless co-op mod and the only just released Dark Souls 3 seamless co-op mod , is now doing the same with Dark Souls: Remastered ... Read more.

• The original Dark Souls is getting the Seamless Co-op mod, over a decade later - 17 March 2025

  Elden Ring's Seamless Co-op mod is by far the most popular fan creation FromSoftware's magnum opus has ever seen. With nearly nine million downloads, it keeps the spirit of the studio's unique take on multiplayer alive while making it much more player-friendly. Since then, its creator 'Yui' has also brought the mod over to Dark Souls 3, and now they've taken it even further. That's right: Seamless Co-op is finally coming to the first Dark Souls .

• Dark Souls Remastered is the next game getting a Seamless Co-op mod, though it might not arrive in time to help fill the pre-Nightreign void - 17 March 2025

  Good news, people who're currently sitting barricaded in rooms gently whispering 'dance pad challenge run' while you wait for Elden Ring Nightreign to arrive. The modder behind Elden Ring 's uber-popular multiplayer add-on is really doing the Elden Lord's work. Read more

• Get the greatest soulslikes of all time for 50% off - 1 October 2024

  Thirteen years ago Dark Souls set a precedent for the hardest games you can get your hands on, and it hasn't relented since. Lauded as one of the hardest video game franchises of all time, Dark Souls is a franchise that fans passionately adore despite the countless controllers thrown in frustration. No comment on how many of those belong to PCGamesN writers. Read the rest of the story...

• Dark Souls Remastered just got remastered again with a new free mod - 27 May 2024

  Visual fidelity isn't always the most important part of a FromSoftware project. Games like Elden Ring, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and Dark Souls thrive on strong art direction and the atmosphere that defines their environments, though, and anything that helps players get the most out of those design elements is worth highlighting. This makes the news of a Dark Souls remaster mod, itself based on the official Dark Souls Remastered launch from several years ago, worth paying attention to - especially since the changes it brings to the FromSoft classic are so sweeping and available to check out entirely for free.

• Before Elden Ring's DLC, every Dark Souls game is now 50% off - 11 May 2024

  There's no other game series like Dark Souls . FromSoftware's landmark series encouraged many imitators, but the trilogy's authenticity of design, lack of compromise, and approach to challenge cannot be beaten. Elden Ring brought this to the open world, but the Dark Souls trilogy used more condensed design in ways that help it hold up today. So if you've never played any of the originals, now's the time, because you can get them all cheap on Steam. Read the rest of the story...

• Dark Souls pixel art mod will have you picturing an alternate universe's 1990s - 19 November 2023

  We might be decades on from pixel art being the dominant video game art style, but that won't stop some modders adding some of that flair into Dark Souls . People love a demake. It's just incredibly fun to imagine a world where Bloodborne was a PS1 game (or another where it received a kart racer ). While Dark Souls might not be getting a full on demake, modder thegreatgramcracker has recently shared their Pixel Souls Demastered mod , which certainly adds a good amount of crunch to the original Dark Souls' cold world (thanks, Eurogamer ). "Experience Dark Souls like you never have before, with fresh visuals all throughout the game!" reads the mod's description. "This mod changes all textures, icons, fonts, and visual effects into pixel art based on the original game textures. Additionally, the music and sound effects have been reduced in quality. Even the enemy and player equipment model…

• Best soulslike games in 2025 - 17 November 2023

  What are the best soulslike games? An off-shoot of action RPGs, the defining principles of this ever-growing subgenre sprung up from Demon's Souls back in 2009. However, it took the release of its spiritual successor two years later to really light a fire under fans. FromSoftware's Dark Souls is a landmark game in many respects, but the soulslike genre is its greatest legacy. While efforts have been made to diversify soulslike games in recent years, patience in the face of adversity remains the focal point. Characterized by punishing stamina-based combat, risk-reward currency systems, and challenging bosses, victory in a soulslike leads to progression through rich worlds that often capture a dark fantasy game aesthetic. Whether you're a newcomer who's not sure where to start or an RPG game veteran looking for a new challenge, we've got the very best soulslikes you can play right now. Re…

• Dark Souls mod turns FromSoft's game into the PSP demasterpiece it was always meant to be - 17 November 2023

  I think a crucial test of a game's visual identity is how well it holds up to a demaster. Bloodborne, for instance, manages to remain recognisably and wonderfully itself when you turn it into some kind of PS1-style kart racer , and it's in no small part down to the talent of both the demaster's makers and FromSoft's art team. And hey, perhaps unsurprisingly, it turns out that applies to other games in the studio's catalogue too... Read more.

• Dark Souls completely rebuilt as a pixel-art RPG, available now - 16 November 2023

  There are Dark Souls mods, and there are Dark Souls mods. You can change your Estus flask into a can of Monster Energy. You can randomize enemies, so you wind up fighting the Capra Demon every time you go near Firelink Shrine. But in some cases, the epochal, FromSoftware RPG gets a visionary overhaul - a total aesthetic transformation that makes it feel like a new game entirely. Between Vampire Survivors, Undertale, and this year's Sea of Stars, if the combination of pixel art and role playing gets your blood pumping, Dark Souls has been completely rebuilt just for you, and you can play the beautiful new version right now.

  The entire Dark Souls series is in a Steam sale ahead of the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree release date , making now the perfect time to go back to FromSoftware's action RPG game trilogy and plug those gaps ahead of the DLC. As PCGamesN's resident Dark Souls enjoyer, I cannot recommend any of these games enough. Read the rest of the story...

• Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon is FromSoftware's biggest Steam launch (that isn't Elden Ring) - 25 August 2023

  Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon represents something special for fans of FromSoftware, and anyone with even a passing interest in the rise of the popularity of the Japanese developer. Elden Ring was one of the biggest launches in 2022, so it stands to reason that anything the studio releases afterwards will have a much larger audience potential. No one expects Armored Core 6 to do Elden Ring numbers, of course, but it's already beating every other game FromSoft released before Elden Ring - at least as far as Steam is concerned. The mech shooter, which launched yesterday, has been gradually climbing through Steam's list of most played games. At the time of writing this, the game has peaked at 150,959 concurrent players on Steam, according to SteamDB . That's up from a peak of just above 127,000 shortly after launch. Read more

• The Dark Souls trilogy is having its first sale in 18 months - 2 July 2023

  The Dark Souls trilogy has seen its first Steam sale since each of FromSoftware's RPG games went offline, following news of a hack in early 2022 across each game that could potentially allow bad actors access to a PvP player's PC. So if you're getting restless waiting for the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree release date and want to dive into some classic Dark Souls with a friend, now's a perfect time.

  If, like me, you only need the slightest excuse to dive back into Dark Souls and its bleak yet beautiful world of Lordran, I'm here to tell you now is a perfect time. The FromSoftware smash hit, and its follow-ups, have always taken a unique swing at the multiplayer game genre.
