Thanks to an upcoming mod, Elden Ring will be getting true co-op, meaning players will be able to play together anywhere any time.
There’s something to be said about the archaic online multiplayer system that Elden Ring uses. That something might be ‘it’s interesting’ but it might also be ‘it’s a pain in the ass’. Thankfully though, modder LukeYui is making it so that Elden Ring will get true co-op thanks to a mod they’re working on.
