The Details on Elden Ring

Elden Ring is a dark fantasy action role-playing game (RPG) developed by FromSoftware and published by the Bandai Namco Entertainment company. If you are a lover of RPGs, then you must be aware of the wildly popular Dark Souls series; it was created by FromSoftware.

Directed By A Stellar Team

The RPG was directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki in collaboration with George R.R. Martin, the renowned fantasy novelist who developed the material for the game’s setting. Elden Ring was released on February 25, 2022, with versions for Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.

Elden Ring benefited from a quick shot to the top of the world’s “most anticipated” RPG lists immediately after the reveal at E3 2019 mainly because of the involvement of George R. R. Martin, the celebrated author of Game of Thrones.

Yeah, George Martin decided to take a rest from the novels, A Dream of Spring and The Winds of Winter to work on video games- much to the disappointment of the book nerds.

In particular, Elden Ring got critical acclaim, selling over 12 million copies within 21 days of its release, thanks to the RPG’s open-world gameplay. This makes Elden Ring one of the fastest-selling open-world games of all time. Outpacing the Witcher, Grand Theft Auto IV, The Legend of Zelda, and Skyrim.
