In 2025, that trend continues, with plenty more mods being released of all kinds for players to enjoy and experiment with. There are Nightreign ports, minor system tweaks, combat reworks, and sweeping changes to sections of the map, giving fans many more ways to play the game and enjoy it for years to come.

Nightreign Skins

Duchess, Recluse, And More

Created By: shintheweapon

Even though Nightreign and the base game of Elden Ring are distinctly different experiences, the former still manages to add a few new assets and bosses to set it apart from the predecessor. Of these additions, some of the coolest are the skins for the Nightfarers, many of which either borrow from old NPCs or are entirely new.

With this mod, those awesome skins can be brought over to Elden Ring for players to try on and use against any of the iconic bosses in the game. While there are no gameplay changes, simple reskins like this can make the game feel drastically different, especially when it's an old icon like Siegward or Artorias.

Un-Alone Companion Mod

Taking On The Task Together

The Un-alone Companion Mod is a simple yet interesting mod that gives players an NPC follower to help them in battle throughout their journey, while also providing them with some quiet moments of comfort at Sites of Grace with additional dialogue options and conversations.

On top of adding an extra set of hands to a fight, the companion can also be leveled up, and their relationship with the player can be improved over time based on their performance and level. It's a nice, simple mod that doesn't change the game drastically, but has enough substance for players to enjoy.

Sword Heart Shura-Total Combat Remake

Reimagining Every Fight

Created By: RuntimeQAQ

The combat in Elden Ring is already pretty diverse, allowing players to fight with swords, bows, staffs, and more, but with this mod, all of those mechanics and systems go out the window in place of speed, aggression, and agency on another level.

The mod has been described as a blend of Wukong, The First Berserker: Khazan, and Rise of the Ronin, adding plenty of new ways to fight that don't necessarily make the game easier or harder, but make it a whole lot more exciting and flashy.

Map For Goblins Expanded

Overhauling How You Approach The Exploration

Created By: faber88

Map for Goblins is a nice utility-based mod that adds a lot of extra information to the player's map, without taking away from the core gameplay experience. There are additional icons for enemy types and weaknesses, loot drops, and generally more pieces of data for players to use in their adventure.

Also, without physically giving players more crafting materials or items, it makes gathering those precious resources just a bit easier by adding tooltips and location tabs on the map to help players navigate their way toward their next upgrade.

The Garden Of Eyes

New Areas, Bosses, And Weapons To Try

Garden of Eyes is yet another impressive overhaul mod that looks to shake up the entire Elden Ring experience by altering existing content and areas, while adding in entirely new ones to reimagine how the map and world can be explored.

There is currently only a demo available, but with frequent updates and posts being made, the mod is shaping up to be one of the most exciting and revolutionary additions to the game since the DLC.

Lord Of Ashes

Making Summons An Integral Part Of Progress

Created By: T0Dawn

Lord of Ashes is a summon-based mod that looks to rethink how players use spirits throughout their playthrough. There are two ways of approaching the mod: using the over 450 new summons anywhere in the world, or playing with the new systems that shift the power over to summons in a big way.

The latter introduces new levels of difficulty by raising boss health pools and requiring players to rely more on their summoned allies than ever before. In either case, the mod makes one of the lesser-used aspects of the game far more useful, introducing new ways to play and have fun in The Lands Between.

Diablo Style Loot

Every Area A New Tier Of Gear

Created By: whiskotangee

Diablo Style Loot does exactly what it says on the tin. Every piece of loot in the game is given a tier ranging from uncommon to legendary, which directly correlates to its power level and overall strength.

What makes the mod particularly cool is the fact that the loot isn't accessible whenever. Early on, players will be mostly finding uncommon items, but as they progress, the higher tiers will start to pop up, adding a nice amount of power creep that remains with the player until the end of the game.

Nightreign Movesets

Porting Over The Agility And Style

Created By: MiquellaTheUnaIloyed (Duchess), evertonjn (Revenant), jamviole (Wylder)

Nightreign practically came out of nowhere and completely changed how the Elden Ring gameplay loop functioned. Among the changes were the additional class types, each with its own movesets and weapons that changed how players approached the night.

With this mod, those classes can be played in the original game, allowing players to take on tough fights like Maliketh with a new set of tools like the Revenant's summons, changing how the battles play out, and adding so much replay value with just a few simple changes.
