Oh shit it's like daughters of ash but way more time and customization. I wish somebody would do something like this but for dks1.
Anyway looking forward to this! Great work!
is there going to be an early acsess?
Wait so is this gonna be the new ds3 convergence style overhaul mod we get to love......
I swear this is also badass as I love the idea of more total overhaul mods light convergence to have even more fun re-renditions of the soulsborne gameplay and story but I also don't want to get spoiled so I think what I'll do is I'll just go through all your videos and let them play on Mew in the background as well as liking them and they contribute following on each one so I boost you guys as much as possible without having to spoil myself or when the mod actually comes out😁👍
We NEED just a rough ETA and I'll def support.
So the Wall Guardian is just the Crucible Knight, upscaled to the size of Yhorm, falls like the Tower Knight, has the face of Gundyr and wield's Godrick's axe... Goes pretty hard
looks like he uses iron golem's animations from ds1
And uses Iron Golems animations from Dark Souls 1!
it's got a yhorm+iron golem+winged knight+valiant gargoyle moveset with some tower knight animations and gundyr face. Very cool boss and beautiful arena.
@@redsky5440 and his armor is Crucible Knights armor from elden ring
And Disgraced Knight is literally reskinned Owl from Sekiro.
I like how the music starts to become more epic after he attacks the Angelic Wall Guardians nuts
Imagine if that's how you trigger hardmode for that fight LMAO
@@dathed i mean i would angry too
Iron Golem decided he wanted to wear Giant Armor
It got personal pretty quickly
My mind was blown when I realized Ruins of Blue was a re-imagining of a Dark Souls 2 area. And the War-Torn Village is gorgeous. Basically a new game, incredible.
Heide’s Tower of Flame
I noticed immediately
@@04SlhS😑
@@04SlhS Your thinking of Demon Souls that was ported to PS5
@@04SlhS why are you hating so hard, this is literally more than anyone could've ask for. Not to mention this will be free
The fact that you recreated Heide's Tower of Flame from Dark Souls 2 is amazing. That was one of my favorite areas.
Not a recreation, I think. A direct map port. AFAIK, none of these were original maps, but repurposed ones from different games.
it was a port, with added details on top, still impressive and cool!
DS2 is one of my favorite and seeing it with this render and quality textures gave me an eyegasm
@@TheEldeNoob DS2 with DS3 controls = Dream come true
I feel like thatd kill the pvp side of ds2 which was legendary
Looks incredible, can't wait to play it!
I was wondering where i saw you, From for honor! Nice you play darksouls
@@chadmode3051 Yeah started my channel on dark souls, always my favourite games
@@HavokYT please do a lets play of it on youtube!
Have you guys play dark souls nightfall?
@@skvrphvse1279 Yes and I am deprived of not having access to it lmao
Owl Father, Divine Dragon, Heide Tower, Lothric Princes, so cool to see all the different aspects from the different From Soft games being integrated here. Holy shit, this is gonna be incredible.
yeah wtf I just killed owl for the second time today and I saw the knight drop the little anti heal ball and was shocked! this looks crazy good!
Also Elden Beast, those projectile attacks from the last boss here.
@@bard1847 Feels more like Lothric Twin though.
The fat giant axe monster in the Archthrone of the Bountiful Queen is from Bloodborne too.
Good thing I wasn't going crazy. I saw the kick and was like isnt that the Owl dudes move set from Sekiro XD?
I'm glad this mod and team is finally getting the recognition they deserve! I can't wait for this mod to drop!
When does it come out?
@@McSpanklez shake it better and it will hopefully soon.
for more advice just ask
@@McSpanklez not for a long time
Probably a very very long time, I know how intensive making a mod is, and its probably a handful of people with jobs and a life so yeah, this will take years.
this is like when you dream and cant quite tell where you are, but nonetheless it feels very familiar. excellent work here guys, you've made a supporter of me
i dream of dark souls alot and i can confirm your statement is true
That was beautifully phrased, my friend.
Honestly the most exciting thing about this project is the fact that the progression in the levels will be so much different than base game DS3. And there are even parts of levels from other games. It will finally feel like a new Souls experience rather than the same old DS3 with some boss changes, new weapons, new enemy placements and some teleports around the map to allow for slightly different progression.
I hope this will encourage other creators to make similar overhaul mods
@@uselesstilxmas Same, but it takes a lot of work... Most these guys do it for free. Something of this scale needs funding to keep devs motivated.
The game looks boring and repetitive.
-trespasser got critical hit, chugged down potions, killed x, repeat.

9:41 you got owned
@@condorX2 what
@@narutofan4545 huh?
thank god fromsoft isn't nintendo
This is a fan made mod, called archthrones
@@juangarciaalvarez6312we know that. We're just glad that fromsoft will actually allow this, because if dark souls was nintendo's IP, they would sue the hell out of the mod creators for daring to change their game
7:00 thats definately owl right there
This is truly the Demon's Souls of Dark Souls III. Awesome to see those sexy visuals in motion.
It's the Dark Souls 2 of Sekiro.
@@rainbowkrampus it's the dark souls 1 of bloodborne?
@@rainbowkrampusits the Armored Core of Kings Field
It's the Enchanted Arms of Ninja Blade.
Totally agree. Just breathtaking to see 💯
Really creative use of animations and navmesh from other from soft games. Shoutout Big Boss
An amalgamation of all the games, that is really sick, it looks and feels so familiar yet fresh... can't wait to try it out, amazing job!!
Agree 100%… well-stated!
You know you have died a lot in souls games when you recognise every single moveset in this video 🫡
I genuinely sat up in my seat when I realized where the player was after the first teleportation. The reimagination of Heide is simply breathtaking. My jaw literally dropped when it was revealed. The visuals look like they were made by FromSoft themselves and the enemies look like they will be entertaining to re-learn. I simply cannot wait to play this mod! :)
Came, saw Heide's Tower of Flame, I liked
fr this actually looks stunning, your team did incredible work on this mod
Never thought this DS2 area could look any better than it already was. They improved upon it. Then again, the night sky has a way of changing / improving certain landscapes.
My eyes lit up when i realised where the tunnel was leading to this looks so incredibly well done
The first thing i thought was "lol that sewer looks like the DS2 one, probably just clever asset reusage". Then when he walked up the stairs I was like "wait a minute, this IS DS2". Really cool stuff.
10:54 my boy Bazuso is back!
Put your grasses on
YES, FINALLY it looks like the mod is getting the recognition it deserves, you guys deserve this
You folk are extremely talented and dedicated this looks like an official dlc of the actual game tysm for this gift and thank you again for sharing it with us.
The environments and boss arenas are awesome! The walk down the hallway at the beginning with all the hollows reaching out is so cool. Showing us two locations that had opposite color pallets was a really great way of hammering in the location diversity. That warzone and bridge fight at the end felt more open-world-y than some areas in Elden Ring. Maybe it's because those wide open spaces had a lot of density and verticality. Can't wait for the release!
So this story is a prequel to Dark Souls 3? Awesome. I could be wrong since Cursed Greatwood isn’t there
This is a beautiful project and It seems that you took a long time to made all of this!
Yeah they've been working on this for 2 year's. Definitely worth the wait tho
I absolutely love the amount of colour in these level! It's such a nice change to the grey and ashy base game design.
I agree, don’t get me wrong I love the level design of the OG souls games (Catacombs of Carthus was one of my favorite levels)
But just the variety of colors and usage is a breath of fresh air.
Seeing some elden ring , demon souls a and dark souls all combined. This is sick bing me more.
Don't forget sekiro too
As a souls veteran I'm blown away. It seriously looks and feels like a brand new experience!
turning Father Owl into a flippy dippy knight is immensely based
but why is the knight walking with stiletto footstep sounds tho
@@Skyflakes05 Probably standing on the balls of his feet
@@Skyflakes05 He's girlbossing.
Based on what?
OWL that goddamn Motherfucker, my hardest Boss in all Fromsoft games
It's Archthroning time
Just subscribed to your patreon. You guys have put some serious effort into this mod and I can't wait to see the final project! Best of luck to you!
There are some Bloodborne influences too I see : some of the sounds in the game, the gothic castles in background in the Ruins of Blue area, the brute at 11:10 (it has the exact same moves and makes the same sounds as the Executioner from BB ).
Good work! Can't wait to play the demo and the final release!
Darkborne: scholar of the second death.
Now seriously, 5 minutes of introduction and the first 2 already shows a hell of a masterpiece
Elden ring open world and bloodborne bigborne
Kartkiro shadows drive twice
Genichi go go go start your engines
Never did I ever expect to see the Iron Golem's base skeleton do Winged Knight, Yhorm, and a myriad of other enemy attacks.
actually seems very similar to Owl's moveset
@@Mosselknaap the rotten knight or whatever it was called has owl's moveset
A bit of the Tower Knight as well, but only with his falling animation, flat on his back instead of a sit down like the Iron Golem.
Basically a combined archangel of a titanic warrior with most of the giant humanoid bosses throughout the '-souls' lineup.
And I absolutely dig it, certainly removed any worries about the bosses AI just being importated variants with a souls-esque model and visual design, such as the Disgraced Warrior which is just Great Shinobi Owl combined with his Father variant.
As someone who's never played any of the Dark Souls games, if you told me this was the original game I'd believe you. I cannot tell what is original and what is new content - which is meant as a compliment of course.
A boss that uses Lloyd Talisman is terrifying
Owl basically does just that in Sekiro too.
That armor is gorgeous.
@@eye_ofhorus6912 I see what you did there.
Other people call IT nameless knight Set...
@@sergejdoll611 Isn't it beautiful?
Looks great guys. Can’t wait 🎉
There just CANT BE enough Soulsborne in this world. Amazing work! Absolutely insane you guys worked on this for just 2 years now. Incredible. Couldn't even tell if its fanmade to be honest. Now we just need an 80s dark fantasy movie inspired by this.
Holy Moly, that is some awesome work. The areas and character design, the modified movesets using skeletons from the other games, music was also pretty fitting for my taste.
These boss designs are killer, and I loved the references to Heide's tower of flame. Nice work!
It looks incredible! Truely the Dark Souls 2+4 we've been waiting for!!
That village on its own is a work of art. I’m not a ds2 fan, but I must admit that ds2 area with DS3 graphics and weather conditions is jaw dropping. Kudos. That is remarkable.
Dude the movesets of the enemies using a mixture of different games is so nice, they look absolutely amazing, can't wait to play it.
it surprises me to see the imports from demon's souls and sekiro movesets being used in the boss fights so creatively. really makes you appreciate the massive amount of work that went into it to pull it off so fluidly. :> bravo
My jaw is LITERALLY on the floor. As I am slowly picking it up, let me say this :
- The redesigned Asylum Demon (Demon Vanguard) is almost a match to the Demon's Souls Remake Vanguard Demon. Visually very impressive.
- To whom belongs that angelic voice that voices the Maiden in Black in The Nexus of Embers ?
- The Nexus of Embers Archthrones, each of them adorned with a Golden Order Greatsword from Elden Ring. And the music, a mix of Demon's Souls Nexus with what ? Beautiful nonetheless.
- You've managed to mix Dark Souls III combat mechanics with a slight hint of Sekiro's combat mechanics.
- The redesigned Heide Knights blocks your attack as if they were a Sekiro Armored Knight.
A match? More like a massive improvement over the bland western slop we got for DeS Remake.
VA is in the description, along with all the other credits.
@@TheDominitri Des remake is bland?
@@TheDominitri literally the most visually impressive game on the next generation of consoles and it's not even close, yet you people can STILL find something to complain about...
actually a fucking joke lmao
It seem the game get repetitive after a while.
-trespasser got critical hit, chugged down potions, killed x, repeat.
Update
9:41 you got owned
I cant believe the quality of this, absolutely jaw dropping!
This is just surreal...I'm absolutely speechless. The devs who worked on this have absolutely outdone themselves. Hope to see the full release soon 👏
Man, it feels like all of the from games melted together and reformed, beautiful work
Y’all did some incredible work holy smokes!
I'm blown away, the locations, bosses, models. animations, mechanics. It all looks fantastic. You made me want to replay a lot of the old Dark Souls games, thank you for your incredible work.
this is absolutely incredible, fantastic job guys, this might be the best fan game/mod I've ever seen!
Honestly the most exciting thing about this project is ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING. Please go on.
How on God's green Earth is it possible to put Sekiro enemies in DS3 and not only making it work, but also sick AF.
Man, all that shit is way bayond gorgeous.
Same with Bloodborne enemies! (Executioner from Bloodborne) 11:00
My guess that every From game from Bloodborne forward is all using the same engine, aside from the Demon's Souls remake.
Sure, but even if BB and DS3 have differences, I suppose that a Dark Souls character could handle a Bloodborne boss. But the gameplay design on Sekiro is way more different. And I am amazed to see that it Can work fine in a more classical Dark Souls game.
That last pinch of health got me on my NERVES JESUS MY LORD THIS IS HUGE
Congratulations
This is a remake of dark souls 1
Or entirely new game?
@@kakacech Different games mixed together, mainly darksouls 3 however, it has a demon souls hud and firelink is now similar to the nexus from demon souls. The bosses are all mixed to the developers choosing.
@@kakacech i can see elden ring props, bloodbrone, sekiro, different mvoesets from enemys of the whole game.
Damn i can't even imagine the final boss
So this is basically an amalgamation of Dark Souls 2, Dark Souls 3, and Sekiro. Very cool.
Very impressive. Now let's see Paul Allen's mod.
@@Big_Boss_Solid The subtle off-dark coloring, the tasteful length of it, oh my god. It even has original content…
this looks amazing! i love the brought back elements of older games and design you guys bring to the table. i will probably use a reshade tho since im not a big fan of the dark souls 3 colorpanel( grey on grey)
Greatest thing I ever see.
Gundyr has had a serious glow up after some years it seems lmfao
disgraced knight is owl from sekiro !! thats so cool :3
This is amazing! I'm so excited to see more! Would it be possible to add more footstep sounds so that they're more varied? As much as I love Dark Souls 3, one thing I kept noticing over my 2,024 hours of playtime is how there's only like 3 sound bytes (bites?) for each surface (stone, dirt, water..etc) with stone being the most noticeable to my ears.
The owl moveset is sick on the disgraced knight. Super impressed by all the visuals and how you pulled movesets and creatures from ever soulsborne game into this.
WOW IM BLOWN AWAY. my hats off to the fans who created this mod. I can’t imagine the time and true talent it took to make this masterpiece. Just incredible
INSANE! INCREDIBLE! Absolutely marvellous you guys went all out with this mod and it shows :) some of the places/enemies look so so much that they are apart of the game it blows me away as well as en. Really take my hat off to you guys the detail in this is incredible as a long time darksouls fan this is honestly one of the coolest things I've seen. Really feels like it should be apart of the game. Again super cool nice work guys really awesome stuff hope from notices and hits you up or something lol.
You've done so well here, the areas are beautifully designed, the gameplay is so faithful to every Dark Souls game and the move-sets are so creative and meet all the high standards for memorable boss fights. This is stunning.
"Fine, I'll do it myself" moment
The atmosphere in the rainswept outpost is absolutely fantastic i love it so much
My man even got the Bazuso from Berserk at 10:47. THAT'S FIRE!!!
i was just expecting this to be the same game with different enemy locations and such but im genuinely amazed that you managed to stuff in the hud from demon souls and an entire area from dark souls 2 on top of putting entirely new things in. great work i hope to see more in the future
I can't express how impressed i am with this project, a lot of throwbacks to other games and even berserk, lots of fan service, amazing design, voice acting, beautiful music and in top of that all of that while sticking to the style of DS2, Fromsoftware should contact you to make this a real DLC
This is easily one of the most impressive mods I've ever seen for any game. I've said it before, but I really think Archthrones is going to set a new standard for modding, both in the Dark Souls community and beyond.
You must not play many modded games 🤦♂🤡
@@smoke6850 there isn’t many mods of this quality for other games tbh the only one that i can think of that have a bigger mod scenario yet is skyrim which is pretty much the basic for playing that game nowadays skyrim was not that great already by the time it launched and it aged tremendously poorly other games that have big mod communities is like GTA and Left for Dead and those the vast majority of mods is like change the skins of MC or the enemies.
@@nathandrake562 I don't mean to discredit the creators of this mod when I say this, this mod is looking quite good and I'll probably check it out.
But Skyrim being the only game that has mods of this quality?
Minecraft, Terraria, Starbound, Mount&Blade (the series), Fallout (the series), Elder Scrolls (not just Skyrim(the series)), Half life, Half life 2, Gmod, Kenshi, Rimworld, Blade & Sorcery and Darkest Dungeon come to mind.
@@nathandrake562 Have you ever played Stalker? there's tons of mods that change the game completely, some much bigger and more complex than others. Stalker Anomaly and GAMMA come to mind.
@@mecromelon6717 of all the games you mentioned i can admit that i overlooked: Minecraft, Half Life 1 and 2 and maybe fallout which is not even close to the popularity of ES and specially Skyrim which popularized the franchise thus having way less mods . i have no idea what starbound is
but Terraria and Rimworld are very simple 2D games it is only logical to think that the production for a mod for those games is not close to a huge 3D game like Skyrim or the other ones that was mentioned, Blade and Sorcery is a VR game so i don’t know how hard it is to make mods to that game i know mods for that game is usually packs of weapons from other games made by the community and lastly Gmod and Darkest Dungeon fall on the same category that I mentioned GTA and Left For Dead which usually consist of either change skins from characters of the game (darkest dungeon) or import models of different games to that game (Gmod which is usually games by Valve itself)
blown away by the quality of this. it must take some GENUINELY hard work to make fromsofts levels play out entirely differently from how they started from base. real smart stuff here, excited for a test of this
My jaw hit the floor when you came out into Heides Tower. Amazing work!
I wish I had money to give yall. This is truly incredible. I especially love the changes to the level design.
Those unclaimed items are calling my name, just imagining what treasures they could be in these remade landscapes: familiar places now remade into something totally new. So many things from so many different games all blending together seamlessly. This is just incredible!
the amount of work you guys are putting into this mod is incredible
This is so very cool and exciting. I noticed some Prince Lorien, Prince Lothric stuff on Angelic wall Guardian, plus Iron golems from DS1 and Yorm the Giant lord from DS3 with his attacks and movements. I do enjoy very well made fan projects like this, it puts a different spin on gameplay, gives you a second chance to re-experience something that is familiar, yet different.
This is very well done, I hope to see more, and this train keeps on going!
You guys take as much time as you need to make this thing, from what I've seen so far this is incredible and beautiful. And I will patiently wait for it's completion.
Looks like my next playthrough of DS3 has been spoken for. Excellent work on this project, it truly looks crafted with care.
I love how the visuals are much nicer than the original game but still have that dark atmosphere
12:08 i dont know if its intentional. But i absolutley LOVE how when the golem takes the first steps, there is no noice but the music and finally the sound of the steps. Please do not "fix" it, it is a nice touch.
This mod just stepped on Cinder and Convergence
Didint need to even step. They just buried themselfs underground.
I haven't been this hyped in a very, VERY long time. Work of art and passion. Beautiful combination of movesets, colours, armor, effects, sounds from across the Soulsborne + Sekiro universe. Bravo.
Becareful, you got a problem with the leg here.. @11:06
Lovely work, I'm a modder myself and I realize the amount of work you've put into this. Loved it! Go on!
omg weather and storm sounds... i cant recall places in these games that had any, but it adds so much.
God this looks freakin amazing! I've been excited about this ever since finding out about it months ago and to see how it's all coming together is incredible...
Absolutely worth the wait and I am so hyped to play it whenever it is finished and take as much time as ya'll need to make this as amazing as it can be ✨
I was in disbelief for half the video, You've got some real talent
Eu to tão surpreso que nem consigo falar inglês, ISSO TÁ INCRÍVEL, PARECE ALGO COMPLETAMENTE OFICIAL, DE TÃO BIM QUE TÁ!!!! como eu amo esse comunidade 💕
@Jesse Rose não, por que sou cringe, seu cringe!!!!
it looks great, i love the re use of assets, with polish it looks like it has a lot of promise
I just can't believe how amazing and smooth this looks. I'm glad you guys took your time enough to pull this up. And i can't wait to play this, amazing work
This mod is like a new benchmark for mods. Incredible work. Patiently waiting.
this is amazing i'm rly looking forward to it tysm guys
Wow why did I just learn about this? Amazing work!
its like a mix of every fromsoft game into one. its beautiful
just gotta add some mechs into it now
I dont see any giant mechs
Yeah, there is already one which is 0/10 called elden ring
@@mishkasamogonoff6415 I take it Bloodborne is your favorite souls game?
@@atlaswastakenistaken no, prob ds1
this is so impressive bro, people like you take modding communities to a whole different level
Looks amazing, great work! Can't wait to try it, very impressive work!
I think what I appreciate amongst everything else is how well tuned the encounters seem to be while still providing challenge, and with how finely crafted and reincorporated the original game's assets are amongst the new work makes this already stand far above most independent works. Avoiding so far the common pitfalls of other mods while imparting a new vision.
Feels like a dream of so many things mixed together, familiar yet different and new. Hella excited to see a full play through of this
As soon as I recognized the sewers leading to Heide, my jaw dropped and I started shivering like crazy. This mod looks insane, great job. Can't wait to see the final version.
Jesus Christ man Dark Souls 2 isn't that bad.
@@shiggerator6816 I just woke up and it took me 15 seconds to get your joke but it's a very nice one lol
And then the Disgraced Knight using Owl’s moveset from sekiro… 👏
@@cornelius7796 and also King allant right ? Like, the Shockwave attack
I then started to shit my pants uncontrollably
this has to be the coolest thing ive ever seen come from the modding community, and thats saying something considering some fo the mods that have come out of the skyrim community or any of the previous mods for ds3. I am completely blown away by the combination of basically every souls game even sekiro, all games ive played and love, cant wait to see more
