Dark Souls 2 Lighting Overhaul Mod in the Works by Lighting Artist; Impressive Screenshots Shown Off

An impressive-looking Dark Souls 2 lighting overhaul mod is in the works by lighting artist and graphics programmer, Stayd.

As reported on by DSOGaming, the aim of this overhaul is to rival the lighting of From Software’s pre-release version of Dark Souls 2. This version, which featured a more advanced lighting model, never saw the ‘light’ due to the limitations of the consoles of that time, including the PS3 and Xbox 360. Unfortunately, the PC version of the game didn’t feature the advanced lighting model either.

We’ve included some screenshots from the mod in action below alongside various comparison shots. Surely, this is an impressive-looking overhaul and while the lighting seems off on some occasions, we’re sure that this mod will be improved before its release.
