Elden Ring is a major project by FromSoftware, the creators of the Dark Souls series. If you are playing on a PC, you can modify the game using custom modifications. In this article, we have compiled the best mods for Elden Ring: for armor, weapons, appearances, as well as mods for magic and characters. We will also guide you on how to install mods.
Custom modifications allow you to make the game more interesting, improve its graphics, change the difficulty, and much more. In this article, we have collected the best mods for Elden Ring. Thanks to them, new types of weapons and armor will appear in the game, unique talismans will be added, and the properties of Great Runes will be reworked. If desired, you can immediately open the entire map, make the passage easier or much more difficult. And for connoisseurs of beauty, it is offered to undress Ranni, Fia, or the main heroine of the game.
Before installing mods, we strongly recommend going offline. Using modifications during online play is undesirable as it may lead to a ban. Also, do not forget to update Elden Ring to the latest version.
To disable a modification, delete its folder from the mods directory. If a mod is installed differently, we will describe detailed instructions separately.
This modification will be useful for those who play online and want to experiment with mods. You can easily switch between the modified and standard versions of Elden Ring.
Although Elden Ring was released a couple of months ago, there are already modifications online aimed at improving the graphics quality. This mod reworks the visuals using Reshade filters and completely changes the lighting system.
In the world of Elden Ring, there are over a dozen different merchants located in various parts of the game world. We have detailed them in a separate guide. The problem is that each of them offers a specific type of goods. If you find this system inconvenient, use this modification. After installing it, the range of goods available from merchants will significantly expand.
An inconvenient camera is one of the main problems in FromSoftware games. This mod allows you to get rid of automatic screen centering. Additionally, the modification disables camera reset when trying to lock onto a target if there is none nearby. As a result, playing will be much more comfortable.
This modification is useful for those who found Elden Ring too difficult. With it, you can increase attack power, reduce incoming damage, and increase the number of healing flasks.
This mod is for those who want to challenge themselves. After installing it, mobs and bosses will be much stronger, the artificial intelligence will become unpredictable, and the number of Sites of Grace will be reduced several times.
For many players, Malenia turned out to be the most difficult boss in Elden Ring. But this mod will make her an even more dangerous opponent. The mod author has added new moves and attack chains to the girl, as well as reworked Malenia's AI to better respond to your actions. As a result, you will have to relearn her behavior and develop new battle tactics.
Another modification that makes the game even harder. Changes will affect bosses, individual regular enemies, and traps in dungeons. But the Great Runes will become more useful than before — many of them will have new passive bonuses.
Pause was absent in all FromSoftware projects, except for Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. With this mod, you can stop the game at any moment. There is another way to pause the game. We talked about this in a separate guide.
If an easy difficulty level is not enough for you or you want to experiment with the game's capabilities, we suggest using cheats. With their help, you can enable immortality mode, fly through walls, kill mobs with one hit, and much more.

Loss of unallocated experience points after death is a hallmark of all FromSoftware games, starting with Demon's Souls. Thanks to this mod, collected runes will stay with the main character forever.
In Elden Ring, there is a talisman that gradually restores health. However, it is ineffective and takes up a separate slot. With this mod, health and magic will recover automatically. The recovery speed is adjustable.
This modification changes dozens of parameters — from mob health scales to attack animations. According to the author's idea, the mod makes Elden Ring more balanced. In addition, new mechanics will appear in the game. For example, the ability to resurrect a boss and fight him again.
To use this modification, you need to move and replace the files in the root directory of the game.
The modification will change the classic battles using two-handed swords. With perfect parrying, you will receive additional animation frames that allow you to easily transition into a counterattack. Something similar was implemented in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.
Before installing the add-on, you need to first install the ERR — Elden Ring Reforged mod. We talked about it above.
This mod is suitable for lovers of exploring the open world of Elden Ring. It adds new enemies and friendly NPCs, additional armor and weapon sets, as well as unique moves and combos to the game.
Note: during the installation of the modification, the files cannot be copied to the root directory of the game. The folder with the mod manager should be located elsewhere.
With this mod, you will unlock access to all sites of grace in the game. This will significantly simplify movement around the open world of Elden Ring. In particular, you can skip the tedious wandering through the sewers and immediately teleport to Mohg, the Omen. This boss opens access to the darkest ending of the game.
Talismans in Elden Ring could only slightly increase your stats. This mod makes talismans more effective.
In Elden Ring, many swords and spears can be imbued with special effects (buffs). By default, they last for a limited period of time. This mod allows them to be permanent. Additionally, buffs can be used on all types of weapons.
As with talismans, great runes did not give players a significant advantage. This mod significantly increases their characteristics.
In Elden Ring, some types of weapons, such as boss soul swords, cannot be enhanced with ashes of war. This mod fixes that game limitation. Additionally, all temporary effects, such as charms associated with weapons, will last indefinitely.
To install this modification, you need to copy the folder to the game directory with replacement.
This mod allows you to move individual interface elements or remove them from the screen. You can choose the option provided by the mod author or customize it to your liking.

FromSoftware games, primarily the Dark Souls series, are inspired by the iconic anime «Berserk». With this modification, you can add Guts' weapon and armor — the main hero of this story — to the game.
Weapons resembling Wolverine's claws appeared in Dark Souls 3, but they were not present in Elden Ring. You can add the knuckles using this mod.
Ares' Blades, in one form or another, have been present in all parts of the God of War series. After installing this modification, they will appear in Elden Ring. These swords are especially suitable for players who are used to wielding two weapons in combat.
If you like Nier: Automata or simply want to play as 2B in Elden Ring, use this mod. It replaces the Astrologer set with a short black dress and a white wig. Similar modifications have been released for other FromSoftware projects — Dark Souls 3 and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.
The iconic armor of the Archangel of Justice from Diablo 4 in Elden Ring. It will replace the ugly Malformed Dragon Set, which can be obtained as a reward for killing the optional boss known as the Dragon Tree Sentinel.
If you prefer the style of the classic Diablo 2, pay attention to the Amazon armor set. In the game, it replaces the Night's Cavalry Set, which drops from the boss of the same name.
A modification that changes the Cleanrot Set to Jaina's outfit from the Warcraft series. The set can be obtained from Cleanrot Knights found towards the end of the game.
Similar to the previous mod, this one allows you to play as Tyrande from World of Warcraft. The modification changes the Carian Knight Set, which can be found in the Liurnia of the Lakes.
The third mod in this category allows you to dress your hero in the armor of Illidan Stormrage. Essentially, this is a skin for the Cleanrot Set, so you will have to choose between it and Jaina's outfit.
This modification adds the outfit of Sylvanas Windrunner to the game. Her characteristic armor replaces the Bloodhound Knight Set. You will obtain it after defeating the Bloodhound Knight in the Volcano Manor.
The Lich King was the main antagonist in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion for World of Warcraft. This armor set fits perfectly with the artistic design of Elden Ring. You can add it to the game using this mod. It replaces the Fire Prelate Set, which drops from the enemies of the same name found on the Altus Plateau and the Mountaintops of the Giants.
Almost every game with cute girls that is released on PC gets a Nude mod. With it, you can completely undress the main heroine. Such a modification also exists for the Elden Ring.
We met Fia at the Roundtable Hold. She is remembered primarily for her strong embraces. This mod will allow you to remove all her clothes.
In Elden Ring, Ranni is associated with a questline, upon completion of which you can unlock the most popular ending. If you want to see what Ranni looks like without clothes, use this modification.
