Summary

• Patches appears in every Hidetaka Miyazaki Soulsborne title, hinting at possible connections between game universes.
• Elden Ring Nightreign features bosses from previous titles, suggesting worlds are converging.
• The Moonlight Greatsword appears in, mostly, every FromSoftware game, hinting at potential connections between the titles.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:FromSoftware is known for making some of the mo🍒st gruellingly challen▨ging titles out there,ꦺ offering banger after banger of new IP that will have fans eagerly awaiting what the𒉰y do next, as it will surely be nothing short of phenomenal.

Still, even with their slew of IPs, there are some similarities between them all, making us wonder if, just maybe, these universes aren't so distant after all🐬 and might be connected in some way, shape, or form. While we may never know, several theories and elements in the game make many fans, including ourselves, think♔ there's more going on than meets the eye!

6 Patches

Always Untrustworthy And Unbreakable

Even though Patches made his debut in FromSoftware's Armored Core: For Answer, he has been a staple of every Hidetaka Miyazaki-developed Soulsborne title since 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Demon's Souls' original release back🐼 ꩲin 2009. Making him absent from Dark Souls 2 and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.

168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Patches is a ಞnotorious thorn in your side, but a very useful merc📖hant iꦉn pretty much every game he's in, making your relationship with him more of a love/hate type. Aside from his gross Bloodborne appearance, he looks pretty similar across all titles, which may be hinting that these worlds aren't so different after all!

5 🌃 Night Bosses 𝓰

Them Again?!

While there were only nods and recurring characters and weapons in the past, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Elden Ring Nightreign blew the doors off everything by including actual boss encounters from a var✨iety of other titles, making it clear that worlds are converginꦛg and crossing over with one anothe⛎r.

However, it is crucial to note that Nightreign's world is an alternate reality from the main story of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Elden Ring proper on its 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. Nonetheless, it is still considered canon, for whatever that's worth, making the appearance of bosses from Dark Souls, Dark Souls 2, and Dark S🌼ouls 3 all the more interesting!

4 Nightfarer S🌸kins 🎀

Praise The... Erdtree?

Speaking of Nightreign's peculiar crossovers, the Nightfarers can get their hands on unique skins that transform them into iconic characters from the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dark Souls (and even Demon's Souls) series. Again, while it does take place in a parallel timeline to Elden Ring, it's fascinating to see Solaire running around the Lands Between while fig💯hting the Dancer of the Boreal Valley.

Does this confirm that the Dark Souls and Elden Ring universes are the same? Not necessarily. But giving us these outfi𒈔ts and boss encounters surely makes conversations surrounding the matter that much more interesting. Nonetheless🙈, at least in Nightreign, the Lands Between, Lordran, Drangleic, and Lothric are connected to some extent!

3 Marvelous Chester 🌸

Strangers In A Strange Land

Marvelous Chester is likely the first thing you think about when you're brainstorming connective threads and tissue between the Dark Souls series and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Bloodborne. This fashionable, gleeful stranger has Bloodborne written all over him and appears in the Artorias of the Abyss expansion for the first Dark So🔯uls.

Chester will ask the Chosen Undead if they were 'Snatched by a sh൲adowy limb and dragged off to the past,' answering 'yes' will have him reveal that he is also a 'stranger' to this land and that the same happened to him. The question is, was the hand that snatched him up Manus, or the Sn🤪atcher from the Bloodborn series?

Nonetheless, Chester is a clear nod from Miyazওaki about his next project's overal🅺l aesthetic, and we think that's incredibly cool. While he doesn't appear in Bloodborne at all, we can't help but wonder if he's from Yharnham and randomly got abducted and brought here for us to meet him!

2 Old Hunter Ya𝓀mamura

Colored By Blood

Another character from a distant land is Old Hunter Yamamura, an NPC you will run into during the Old Hunters expansion in Bloodborne. While his appearance may not look as out of place as Chester's, he traveled from a distant eastern land. With that in mind, you can begin seeing the clear 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice hints.

Despite Sekiro being years away, and Dark Souls 3 being the title to release after Bloodborne, we know that Sekiro began development in 2015 after the team at FromSoftware finished𓄧 the Old Hunters expansion for Bloodborne. Coincidence? We don't think so.

🍌Again, like Chester, Yamamura doesn't actually appear at all in Sekiro, but this Chikage-wielding eastern man is a clear-cut nod to things to come by Miyazaki and FromSoftware. Is this man from a fictitious Sengoku-era Ja🙈pan? Who knows. But we'd love for that to be the case!

1 Moonlight Greatsword 💖 🐽

My Guiding Moonlight

Lastly, of course, we have the Moonlight Greatswords that have appeared throughout every Soulsborne title, even Dark Souls 2, which Miyazaki was not part of its development. While it first appeared in King's Field, it has been a staple of the Soulsborne titles (168澳洲幸运5开奖网:and even Armored Core), making us wonder if there's some connective tiss🤡ue between them.

Ranging from Demon's Souls to Elden Ring, every title released by FromSoftware has had the Moonlight Greatsword in it in some way, shape, or form. Even Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice technically has it, except it is only wield༺ed by the majestic Divine Dragon in the form of an enormous celestial Seven-branch Sword.

It's unclear if this sword connects these games at all. However, having them and Patches be a consistent variable across the majority of them does raise our eyebrows in interest. Again, this isn't super concrete, but with everything else above, we'd say there's likely something there that you could argue connects the game's worl🧜ds together!
