The fact that Minecraft with its countless mods can be redesigned into completely different games - at least visually - is nothing new.
Also that the gameplay is changed is not new. Sometimes it is still (over)exceeded...
Have you ever wondered how a mix of Minecraft and Elden Ring could look like?
If not, you still get the answer: A fan of both games played our favorite block game into a pixelated knock-off from Elden Ring.
"Only" 40 mods were used to change gameplay, opponents, dungeons and more.
The result is impressive!
The YouTuber "AsianHalfSquat" is responsible for the curious experiment. In his almost 20-minute video, the Minecraft YouTuber presents how the block game can be transformed into an Elden Ring clone.
As mentioned, about 40 different mods were used - but it's best to take a look for yourself:
After the general overhaul, Minecraft not only looks noticeably different, it also plays that noticeably different.
For example, the combat system becomes much more complex due to the variety of weapons, while even the most harmless opponents can become a real challenge.
In addition, new bosses patrol the game world, which can also reduce the game world to rubble in the best Minecraft manner. So you won't escape your (optional) adversaries quite as easily as in Elden Ring.
But also visually, Minecraft gets almost a completely different character. With new textures and a modified game world, the game looks much less life-affirming - just as you are used to from the Elden Rings lands.
A loot system based on Elden Ring naturally also rewards the explorers among you. Although Minecraft players have probably never had any problems with it.
How can you play this yourself?
AsianHalfSquat put together the package of almost 40 mods themself and collected them in a single download.

How exactly the installation works is explained in detail in the video.
Since I am not the biggest fan of modded Minecraft, I have not tried it myself yet, but if YOU do, please let us know in the comments! 😀
