Best Elden Ring & FromSoftware Souls Subreddits
Few gaming fandoms are as active on Reddit as the one around FromSoftware. Elden Ring, the Dark Souls trilogy, Bloodborne and Sekiro all maintain large, living communities where a bad night against a boss turns into advice threads, summon offers and the occasional standing ovation for a no-hit run.
The culture is unusual for gaming spaces: the spirit of jolly cooperation carried straight over from the games. Post that you are stuck on Malenia or the Orphan of Kos and you will get build critiques, co-op partners and encouragement rather than mockery. Beneath that help layer sits the lore machine: entire subreddits dissect item descriptions line by line.
Here are 15 subreddits, starting with the main game hubs and moving on to communities for PvP, mods, builds, co-op matchmaking, lore and memes.
The main hub for everything Elden Ring, from boss struggles and build advice to screenshots of the Lands Between and Shadow of the Erdtree discussion. If you join only one FromSoftware subreddit, make it this one.
Dedicated to the original Dark Souls, the game that defined a whole genre. First-playthrough questions, Remastered talk and requests for jolly cooperation are all part of daily life here.
Home of the series' most debated entry and one of its friendliest communities. Ask about Adaptability, show off a hexer build or join the eternal argument about whether the game is underrated.
Everything about the trilogy's finale: boss strategies, co-op signs, PvP stories from the arena outside Pontiff's chamber and advice for any build, from pure sorcery to full strength.
The studio-wide subreddit covering FromSoftware itself: news, rumors and cross-game discussion, from Armored Core and King's Field to whatever Miyazaki announces next.
Yharnam's central gathering place. Hunter fashion, lore theories, chalice dungeon questions and a communal, decade-long dream of a PC port or a sequel.
The community for Shadows Die Twice, where posture bars and parry timing rule. Great for deflection tips, charmless-run bragging and reminding one another that hesitation is defeat.
A deliberately positive corner for duels, invasions and colosseum fights. Veterans and rookie PvPers alike share clips, meta talk and loadout advice without the usual salt.
The place for Elden Ring modding, a topic the main subreddit does not allow: seamless co-op, randomizers, full overhauls and everything about installing them safely.
A quieter subreddit devoted to lore archaeology across the trilogy: item descriptions, cut content and theories about what really happened in Lordran, Drangleic and Lothric.
Focused entirely on Dark Souls 3 character building: stat spreads, weapon infusions and honest feedback on whether your planned build will survive past Irithyll.
Bloodborne's matchmaking board: ring the bell here and find co-operators for bosses, areas or whole playthroughs. As close to a jolly cooperation hotline as the game gets.
A covenant of chalice dungeon specialists sharing glyphs, loot routes and help with cursed depth-five bosses. Essential once Bloodborne's underground grind has hooked you.
Memes about Elden Ring and Nightreign, with a strict no-AI rule. Lighter and more focused than the main subreddit when you just want dogs, jars and Malenia jokes.
The fandom's court jester, celebrating and mocking the whole soulsborne catalog at once. Half the jokes require having finished three games, and that is exactly the point.
The order mixes community size with usefulness: the big hubs come first, the specialists after. If you want more, from speedrunning to fan clubs for a single weapon, browse the full gaming section on redditory: the souls corner of Reddit goes far deeper than one list can show.
