As rumoured, the following game from Dark Souls and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice studio FromSoftware is Elden Ring. Revealed tonight throughout Microsoft’s E3 blast, it’s some method of FromSoft-y fantasy action-RPG. All we’ve to see for now could be a pre-rendered cinematic trailer narrated by a chap caught in a drainpipe. Elden Ring is being directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki, the FromSoft firm president who directed games together with Sekiro, the primary and third Dark Souls, and Bloodborne – the great things. Also some fella named George R.R. Martin, who I’m led to imagine writes books about shag-mad wizards melting an ice chair, is pumping lore into the game’s world.
“Collaborating with George R.R. Martin to create the Elden Ring mythos has been a genuinely delightful experience and a source of wonderful inspiration,” Miyazaki stated in in the present day’s announcement. “The team is working hard to ensure that the world of Elden Ring will be a fascinating place for players to explore, filled with peril and wonder from its furthest reaches to its lowest depths. This is a FromSoftware title through and through, rich in fantasy and RPG action. We sincerely hope you look forward to it.”
I’m excited to see what FromSoft do subsequent even simply when it comes to fisticuffs. Bloodborne (sadly nonetheless not on PC) is such a joyous subversion of the Dark Souls type of violence and Sekiro hoo there’s a game alright.
“Building the world of Elden Riung with Miyazaki-san and his team was a treat!” Martin added. “The graphics, mythos, and action-RPG gameplay will deliver an unforgettable experience. I can’t wait for people to see what Elden Ring has in store for them.”
Bless, he stated “graphics.” What yr is that this?
Elden Ring is coming to PC (and PS4 and Xbone) in some unspecified time in the future. Publishers Bandai Namco say it’s “coming soon” however do they imply FromSoft “soon” or George R.R. Martin “soon”?
n.b. I don’t imagine in assigning credit score for games made by big groups to at least one single particular person, not to mention one one that’s apparently simply blasting lore, however like a sailor drawn to sirens I couldn’t resist writing the phrase “George R.R. Martin’s Elden Ring.” FromSoftware sincerely hope you sit up for George R.R. Martin’s Elden Ring. George R.R. Martin can’t look forward to us to see what his Elden Ring has in retailer for us. Like his arsehole, you see? Classic.
