Wolf of the Ashen Flame

A single-player Dark Souls III host mashup that turns the player into Wolf from Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.

This prototype keeps the world, enemies, and boss structure of Dark Souls III while layering in Sekiro-inspired combat: the Kusabimaru, precise deflection timing, posture damage, and acrobatic movement. The game remains a dark-fantasy boss rush and endurance challenge, but with the rhythm and feel of Sekiro.

The project is designed to be a clean Melty mashup: Dark Souls III is the required host and launch target, while Sekiro is a required companion whose files are referenced from the player's own install rather than copied into the upload.

Core concept

• Host game: Dark Souls III
• Companion game: Sekiro
• Play style: single-player, fast, precise, high-stakes sword duels
• Focus: Wolf transformation, posture combat, deflection windows, movement and boss encounters

Scope for the prototype

• One or two DS3 areas for testing
• Wolf model / loadout and Kusabimaru replacement
• Sekiro-style deflect/parry timing and posture system
• Dark Souls III world and boss fight context
• No multiplayer in the first pass
