Summary
Dark Souls Remasteredis getting a seamless co-op mode, which is currently in development by a popular modder. The upcoming add-on should completely transformDark Souls Remasteredinto a co-op-first experience.
The mod in question is being developed by Yui, a well-known modder who previously expanded on a variety ofFromSoftware games. One of their most recent projects was a seamless co-op mod forDark Souls 3, which was uploaded to Nexus Mods on July 21, 2025.
Yui is now following up on that project with a seamless co-op mod for thecritically acclaimedDark Souls Remastered. The modder recently provided an update on the project via their Patreon page, stating that the add-on is currently “nearing completion.” In terms of testing, Yui has already managed to complete severalDark Souls Remasteredplaythroughs using the mod and encountered few issues along the way. The moddernotedthat the handful of bugs that did arise during testing have already been fixed, adding that the seamless co-op mod is otherwise looking stable.
Yui’s Dark Souls Remastered Seamless Co-Op Mod Key Features
Yui’s latestDark Soulsseamless co-op modwill also fix a number of multiplayer bugs that exist in the vanilla version of the 2018 remaster, the creator said, albeit without clarifying what these issues actually are. The modder also shared some brief gameplay footage from the mod, illustrating how seamless co-op will work in the game. The video underlines how the mod will makeDark Souls Remasteredplayable from start to finish in a single multiplayer session, with player summons persisting through death, boss kills, teleports, and other events that would normally end cooperative gameplay in the vanilla version of the game.
As of late March 2025, “the overwhelming majority of the mod is complete and now it’s just a case of testing and adding some finishing touches,” Yui said. However, the developer still isn’t ready to commit to a concrete release window just yet. Yui’s add-ons have historically taken several months from the start of development to the version 1.0 release. For instance, theirElden Ringseamless co-op mod was released on Jun 03, 2025, just two days following the game’s three-month anniversary. This upcomingDark Souls Remasteredadd-on hence seems likely to materialize no later than summer 2025.

TransformingDark Souls Remasteredinto a fully cooperative experience could breathe new life into the popular remaster, prompting some PC players to revisit the ARPG. The ability to experience the entire game in co-op is also bound to make it more accessible, allowing players to rely on others to carry them through the more difficult non-boss sections.
