Sometimes a video game crossover can present itself from completely out of left field, likeTerry Bogard joiningSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate. The end result is wonderful, but it may be something fans just weren’t expecting. Other times a mashup can sound so perfect that fans wonder why they haven’t thought of it before, and this may be the case of some gorgeous video game artwork that was just uploaded online.
TheDark Soulstitles are regarded as some of the most beautiful and dark video games in the industry. The dichotomy of grime and horror with an aesthetic that is remarkably pleasing is something that cannot be understated. In a very specific way,Dark Soulscould be compared toHollow Knight.The indie darling is absolutely gorgeous, with an art style that is somehow both depressing and uplifting, gritty but cute. Creating artwork of aDark SoulsandHollow Knightcrossover seems too perfect, and that’s what the YouTube channel Drawfee Show recently did.

Drawfee Show is a channel on YouTube that makes artistic creations of ideas from fans. In an upload that recently went live, the artists who are a part of the show created mashup pieces ofDark SoulsandHollow Knight. The two games don’t only share similarities in being some of thehardest video gamesin recent memory, but the art style meshes together perfectly.
Fans have beencreating amazing artwork ofDark Soulsever since its release, which was almost ten years ago. This work created by Drawfree Show is certainly a fresh take on the games. Some of the art looks like it belongs inDark Souls, but hasHollow Knightcharacters or vibes. Other art looks like it was pulled right out ofHollow Knightitself, but withDark Souls-like enemies.
Fans are still waiting forHollow Knight: Silksong.Hollow Knightwas regarded as a near-perfect game, so the developers have a high bar they must hit. There are manyfeatures that fans hope will be a part ofHollow Knight Silksong, but beautiful artwork is a given. The trailers have shown that that area shouldn’t be a concern.
TheDark Soulsgames are the favorite for many of the souls-like followers, and theDemon Souls Remakepoints to the possibility ofDark Soulsremakeas well. TheDemon SoulsRemake looks better than many completely new games, and much of that has to do with the art style of all of the games from that series. Whether itsHollow Knightor theSoulsgames, the art in the titles are part of what make them so special.
