Best Elden Ring Mods - Armor, Weapons, Difficulty, Graphics, Maps, Pause, and More

Elden Ring is another major project from FromSoftware, the authors of the Dark Souls series. If you're playing on PC, you can change the game with custom mods. We have collected the best of them in this article.


Before installing mods, we strongly recommend that you go offline. It is undesirable to use modifications while playing online, as this can lead to blocking. Also, don't forget to update Elden Ring to the latest version.


How to install mods on Elden Ring

  1. Download and install ModEngine 2 mod manager.
  2. Find the modification you need and download it.
  3. Unpack the mod folder into the mods directory, which is located in the root directory of the mod manager.
  4. To launch the game, open the launchmod_eldenring.bat file from the ModEngine 2 folder.

To disable a mod, delete its folder from the mods directory. If the mod is installed differently, we will describe detailed instructions separately.

  2. Create a text file in this folder called steam_appid.txt.
  3. Open it and enter the text "1245620" (without quotes). Save your changes.
  4. Run the eldenring.exe file through this directory, not through Steam.

How to work with cheats:

  1. Download Cheat Engine from the official site.
  2. Download Elden Ring Cheat Table.
  3. Start the game.
  4. Open Cheat Engine and connect to the eldenring.exe process.
  5. Download the cheat table.
  6. Enter cheats.
