ELDEN RING - The latest work of the Dark Souls creators finally revealed!

When the Japanese developers of From Software used E3 2019 to announce their new project Elden Ring, probably only a few people expected it to take two years before we would be treated to some first-hand game scenes. As part of E3 2021, the Dark Souls makers finally had a change of heart and released an extensive gameplay trailer for Elden Ring.

This makes it clear that the Japanese development studio is staying true to its strengths and transporting you to another exciting and dark world. Here you will take on the fight against powerful monsters, experience an exciting and subtly told story, and set out in search of powerful equipment that you can use to continuously improve your hero.

ELDEN RING - Official Gameplay Reveal

These gameplay features are offered

Even if fans of the Dark Souls franchise feel at home in the world of Elden Ring right away, there is of course one or the other new feature waiting for you in direct comparison with the legendary series. For example, the world of Elden Ring is said to be much more open than was the case, for example, in Dark Souls 3 or Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. This results in a non-linear player experience that allows you to explore the world of Elden Ring to your heart's content.

Also new are the dynamic weather and the atmospheric day and night change, which will breathe life into the world of Elden Ring in a believable way. Whether you take your exploration trip on foot or on the back of a horse is up to you. Promised are oppressive swamps, dark and deadly forests, dizzying mountain ranges and breathtaking castles.

Take on the adventure with a friend

After the developers of From Software did without a multiplayer component in their last work Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, Elden Ring picks up on this again in the Dark Souls series. So you can decide for yourself whether you want to face the adventure alone or rely on the support of a friend.

The help of other players is of invaluable importance in Elden Ring, because the fantasy adventure turns out to be quite tough in classic From Software style and your skills in combat will be put to a hard test. Attacking, blocking, dodging; once again, it comes down to a strategic approach and quick reflexes alike if you want to prove yourself in a title from From Software and experience the story designed in collaboration with celebrated US author George R.R. Martin (Game of Thrones) to the end.
