An Elden Ring mod has added several pieces of Old School RuneScape weapons and armor to the game. The mod for Elden Ring blurs the line between FromSoftware’s RPG and Jagex’s never-ending MMORPG.

The Elden Ring modding community isn’t as large as many other RPGs out there, despite the game’s widespread popularity. The game is still relatively new, so there is still time for it to pick up in the future. However, it does mean that many of the mods out there are incredible, as they’re only created by the most hardcore Elden Ring fans. One ambitious mod for Elden Ring even adds Pokemon to the game, allowing players to summon Pokemon to help with Elden Ring‘s difficult combat. It remains to be seen just how ambitious the Elden Ring modding community will be able to get with the title going forward, but the early signs are positive.

The mod was uploaded to Nexus Mods by user Lordcobra12, and adds several iconic pieces of RuneScape armor to the game. It adds a full Bandos set, an Abyssal Tentacle, Dragon Claws and Boots, and a Fire Cape, among other smaller items. Adding the items comes at a cost however, as it replaces some of the base game armor in Elden Ring. For example, the Bandos set replaces the Night’s Cavalry Set, and the Abyssal Tentacle replaces the Thorned Whip. For fans of RuneScape, the trade-off may prove to be worth it.

The mod is clearly very incompatible with Elden Ring‘s deep lore, though many players won’t mind. If players of Elden Ring can accept Thomas the Tank Engine being added to the game, it’s unlikely that the line will be drawn at RuneScape. Interestingly, the models don’t appear to have been directly ported from RuneScape, and instead have been recreated by the mod author to fit in more with Elden Ring‘s aesthetic. Interestingly, on the Nexus Mods page, the mod author claims to be planning to port Skyrim armor sets to Elden Ring in the future, so there’s more to come from Lordcobra12.

Elden Ring was a hit upon its release, smashing sales records for FromSoftware’s previous titles. The success of the game has seen the confirmation of the first expansion for Elden Ring titled “Shadow of the Erdtree.” While no date has been given for the expansion, hopefully players don’t have to wait too long to get their hands on FromSoftware’s latest batch of content. With most of FromSoftware occupied with the upcoming Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon, it’s unknown when players can expect to hear about a potential sequel to Elden Ring, or another Soulslike title.

Elden Ring is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
