Elden Ringis a collaboration between Hidetaka Miyazaki—creator of theDark Soulsgame series—and George R.R. Martin, who penned theGame of Thronesfantasy series. Between the creators and the game’s darkly dramatic cinematic trailer, is it any wonder why this upcoming action RPG has garnered so much attention?
Martin crafted the lore upon whichElden Ring’s story is based after being contacted by Miyazaki, who is a fan of Martin’s work. Currently, there is not much information about the story itself or what we can expect from theElden Ringplotline. What we do know, however, know that it will be a dark fantasy game in which players can create custom characters instead of being tied to a fixed default protagonist.
