Here Are Some Elden Ring-Inspired Mods To Try While Waiting For Elden Ring News

Again, we haven’t really seen much of Elden Ring, so it’s simple, but this mod replaces the Steel Soldier Helm in Dark Souls 3 and replaces it with the Valkyrie Helm instead. It’s a simple retexture, but you will need Mod Engine in order to make it work the way it should. 

The helm is fashioned off the Valkyrie seen in the teaser trailer with her flowing red locks billowing behind her. While the Dark Souls counterpart doesn’t look nearly as elegant as a cinematic, it is a neat little swap out for those looking for a new look. 

You can get Mod Engine here and you can find the Valkyrie Helmet addition itself at Nexus Mods. 

Another new gear swap brings back the Valkyrie imagery once more, this time concerning the Sun Shield in the first Dark Souls. Again, a simple retexture but a more detailed representation. Which is still more than we have at this time. We’re sad too, but when a full reveal does drop? We’ll be right there cheering with you.

You can find this mod right here. 

This particular mod is less cut and dry and more of a fan interpretation. Simply called “Helmet of the Elden Ring,” the mod’s creator said that this design was inspired by both the upcoming FromSoftware game and Dark Souls. 

One thing to note is that this is crafted under Daedric, which means you will need the Daedric smithing perk in order for this to work. It can also be upgraded, so you don’t have to worry about choosing fashion over functionality. 

“A helmet that was left after the ring shattered,” read’s the mod’s description. “Between all the broken pieces of glass and ashes. The last remnant of an age long gone. A helmet, still hot from the embers.” 

You can find this creative addition right here. 

And in a cruel tease, this mod only because it just made me crack up when I saw it. It does literally nothing but adds a golden ring called “Elden Ring.” It’s a satirical mod created to poke fun at the fact that we literally don’t know anything because FromSoftware is keeping the title close to the proverbial chest until they are ready to reveal more. 

You can find the ring crafted after Elden Ring at the bottom of the water near Dragonsreach. While it does give a small illusion buff, it’s nothing to write home about. 

“The Elden Ring can be found nowhere because it doesn’t exist in the bottom of one of the pools of water near Dragonsreach,” jokes the mod’s description. “It’s a treasure hunt! Woo!”

You can get this one right here. Or send it to your friends and tell them it does something super cool.
