The Convergence mod is an exhaustive overhaul of Dark Souls 3 with dozens of new weapons, hundreds of new spells, extensively revamped areas and maps, improved visuals, new enemies, bosses and much more.

Every map has been extensively overhauled with new enemy and item placements, improved lighting, decorations and aesthetics. The goal of the map reworks is to change the feel of the areas, as well as adding new surprises and challenges, in hopes of reigniting the excitement of a first playthrough.

Covenants now play a key role in every build. Covenants grant the player perks and buffs, as well as enabling collection of covenant items from all enemies. These items can be traded in at the covenant's corresponding shops for powerful spells, weapons and armor.

The three basic magic schools of vanilla have each been split into four distinct sub-schools, making 12 in total. Each of the new spell schools have their own distinct playstyle and progression, as well as custom spells, catalysts, vendors and armor.

Every single weapon has either been rebalanced or completely reworked, making all of them viable. New weapons often come with brand new movesets, and usually incorporate animations from Bloodborne and Sekiro for added variety.

Several new armors have been added, and all sets grant various stat bonuses and perks when worn.

All bosses have been revamped in some way, and some are even completely new, with animations and AI unique to Dark Souls 3.
