Despite the constant demand for a PC port ofBloodborneand developer FromSoftwaremore than willing to make it happen, Sony has yet to indicate it has any interest in the idea. In the meantime, you can always count on modders to provide the next best thing. In this instance, there is now a mod forElden Ringthat overhauls its visuals and gameplay to better resembleBloodborne.
As spotted byGamesRadar, said mod is titledElden Ring Graceborneand is available for downloadon Nexus Mods. Creator corvianNoctis states it’s in the alpha stage of development but, for something that’s still a work-in-progress, it looks mighty impressive based on its release trailer. The world ofElden Ringnow looks even moodier, with enemies and boss fights given a complete redesign to fit theBloodborneaesthetic. The playable Tarnished character has also been swapped out forBloodborne‘s Hunter.
Aside from adding 22 armour sets, 35 weapons, 17 trick weapons and five firearms,GraceborneincludesBloodbornegameplay mechanics not present inElden Ring, like gun parrying and the ability to quick step while locked onto an enemy. EvenBloodborne‘s healing mechanic has been carried over to replaceElden Ring‘s. According to the Nexus Mod listing, you can acquire all the new weapons and armour sets from a new NPC based in the Church of Elleh, one of the earliest locations you can reach inElden Ring.
It’ll likely be a very long time until the mod is truly complete but, at the time of writing, it’s been downloaded over 5,700 times, and the comments under the YouTube trailer are full of nothing but compliments. It also just goes to show how passionate theBloodbornefan-base is despite the game being nearly 10 years old at this point. Earlier this year, a group of fans came together to makean unofficial kart racing spin-off, but they had to change its name after Sony got in contact. Hopefully, something similar won’t happen withGraceborne.
