Random: Elden Ring Player Defeats Boss With Nintendo’s Ring Fit Controller

Unless you live under a rock, you’ve probably heard about a game called Elden Ring over the past week. It’s the latest title from the team at FromSoftware (the same developer behind the popular Dark Souls series).

If Elden Ring wasn’t already enough of a challenge for most players, one guy has able to increase the difficulty by adding a Ring Fit Adventure controller (known as the Ring-Con) to the fight. Yes, that’s right – modder and Ring Fit enthusiast Super Louis 64 has returned, this time for Elden Ring.

It’s not just some sort of experiment, either. He was actually able to successfully defeat a boss (Bloodhound Knight Darriwil) on his first attempt. Too easy.

If you are curious to know how this Ring-Con mod for Elden Ring works, Super Louis has explained what’s going on in a follow-up video on Twitter. He can’t run unless he’s actually moving, he has to squeeze the Ring-Con to attack, and squat to heal. It’s quite the workout! You can view the full fight over on his Twitch channel.

Super Louis 64 has previously used the Ring-Con to play The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. You can see him exploring the land of Hyrule in our previous post.
