In the grand tradition of people modding their favourite video games to be played with the most wildly inappropriate controller imaginable, one plucky gent is currently sprinting and squatting his way through Dark Souls 3 using Nintendo’s Ring Fit Adventure peripheral.
Developer From Software’s notoriously challenging Dark Souls series has long been a favourite for atypical controller larks, of course; we’ve seen Dark Souls completed using a bongo controller, its sequel bested using a guitar controller, and part 3 has inspired attempts using two dance mats, a Wii steering wheel, even a bunch of actual bananas.
As it happens, those latter three efforts were all the work of just one man – modder SuperLouis64, previously known as A Twerking Yoshi – and now he’s at it again, this time combining Dark Souls 3 with Ring Fit Adventure’s pleasingly squeezable controller.
