eather Wald, a game and tech writer, revealed that it has been confirmed that the author of Game of Thrones, George R.R Martin, has been working with the Dark Souls and Bloodborne author, Hidetaka Miyazki, on a brand new game called Elden Ring. For this game, the back story or plot is said to revolve around Martin’s mythos to this dark fantasy RPG game. Apparently, the game will still retain challenging gameplays that are well-known features of other From Software such as Like Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro Shadows Die Twice. Most likely, from a gamer’s perspective, this may be one of the hardest games that they will create.

Heavily armoured figure under a crimson sky Heather Wald goes on to explain that since George R.R Martin is well known for creating a bleak and brutal world with complex characters, this game will certainly dive right into a particular blend of fantasy. In the cinematic trailer, there are several scenes of a person being surrounded by multiple arms. The narrator speaks in an ominous and mysterious tone, briefing what has happened before the story even began. Certain scenes show other images such as a “heavily armoured figure under a crimson sky”.

Apparently this game has been in the works since 2017. It has been confirmed that Elden Ring is a third-person RPG action game. Since it is an open-world game, there would be countless treasures throughout the game. It is only a matter if the user can find them or not. It also contains the Character Customization feature which means that the user can change the looks of a character to his or her liking. There are different types of weapons and other equipment to support a character’s quest. The added features are meant to make

the game even more amusing because it’s YOU who makes the choices not the other way around, and that is another reason why the consumer should be excited for this game to come out. According to the president of From Software, Hidetaka Miyazki, this game will be without a doubt their biggest title. This game is probably going to be the most popular and best selling game that they have ever created. Get hyped because this will going to be incredible!
