Ambitious Dark Souls "Sequel" Mod Drops First 18 Minutes
A new video shows the start of Dark Souls: Nightfall up to the first boss.
Dark Souls modding project Nightfall promised it would act as a "direct sequel" to the game when it was first announced, and new footage shows the project living up to that promise. A video shows the first 18 minutes of the game in full, showcasing a new story, unique characters, voice acting, and a brand-new boss, as picked up by PC Gamer.
Nightfall picks up right where Dark Souls left off, with the protagonist quickly coming upon the Kiln of the First Flame--the location of Dark Souls' final boss battle. The fan-made sequel follows on from Dark Souls' "dark" ending, where the Chosen Undead defeats Lord Gwyn and becomes the Dark Lord. The new protagonist is a hollow, navigating this new Age of Darkness in Lordran.
