Dark Souls: Nightfall is a complete fan-made sequel to Dark Souls, in the form of a mod. This is a demo of Nightfall, which currently has no release date (but will be sometime after Elden Ring). Nightfall is a huge, collaborative, multi-year project being worked on by more than a dozen experienced modders of FromSoftware games and talented artists.

The demo represents a work in progress. In fact, we will be using feedback from this demo to make tweaks to the final release of Nightfall -- particularly feedback on the core combat mechanics. Please be constructive and charitable; we are fans working almost entirely for free, and our team runs entirely on your good vibes and kind words :)

Both the demo and the full release of Nightfall are for DARK SOULS: REMASTERED ONLY. We do not have the bandwidth to support Prepare to Die Edition in parallel, and in any case, it is likely too outdated to support all of the changes we're making.

You must play Nightfall offline to avoid being banned. In the full release, we will have internal measures in place to actively prevent players from being online, but for the demo, you will have to make sure of this yourself! The safest way to play is to go offline in Steam entirely.

Kind thanks to everyone who has expressed a wish to donate
