Elden Ring - Everything you need to know!

Who has what it takes to take on the job of an Elden Lord? Elden Ring also puts to the test. The wait is almost over as the release date dawns on February 25th - get a recap of the game while you wait.

What is Elden Ring? A ring to bind us all

We have lit many fires, rung many bells, put on many rings, sworn many oaths, stood proudly on the steps of the church of Anor Londo, our faith has made us work miracles, all for the one flame - and again and again death has separated us.

Few bonds are as beautiful, passionate and ghastly at the same time as those of gamers with the Dark Souls series. Elden Ring's 20-minute gameplay presentation has rekindled the fire for Soulslikes. The fantastic world design in a dark fantasy setting, the unmistakable From Software mood, familiar sound effects, the dearly loved battle system. Everything is there - and in Elden Ring even more of it. More freedom of movement, more complex spells, mounts, puzzling stories. "From Software can't develop bad games anymore," we hear again and again. Since Demon's Souls, that's been true.

Elden Ring, however, is no Dark Souls, even though it may look like one and plays like one to a large extent. It offers us its own setting and, for the first time, an open-world design. Fans of From Software games are critical of this departure from the previous, cleanly thought-out level design. But reviews by the trade press show: With Elden Ring, From Software has once again done everything right and perhaps delivered the best Souls-like game. At the moment, Elden Ring has a total score of 95/100 on Metacritic - insane! Even IGN have rated the game with a perfect 10/10, calling it a masterpiece.

The story of Elden Ring is told fragmentarily during gameplay, as you would expect from a From Software title. There is some basic background knowledge beforehand: The Elden Ring has been destroyed and chaos descends upon the interlands. Your job as a so-called "Tainted One" is nothing less than to defeat various demigods and restore order. Find out what the Earth Tree is all about and assemble the Elden Ring. Whoever manages to do this will probably be able to call themselves "Elden Lord" at the end of the game and look forward to the New Game+ mode.

Elden Ring PC System Requirements

Developer From Software doesn't use a new engine for Elden Ring, but probably a somewhat beefed-up one, and the leap from Dark Souls 3 to the new open-world title isn't a very big one in terms of performance requirements. While DS3 required at least a GTX 750 Ti or a Radeon HD 7950, Elden Ring should at least require a GTX 1060 or a comparable graphics card. As always, we recommend that you use the latest drivers for your graphics cards to have the smoothest gaming experience possible - AMD / Nvidia.
