On May 30th, Bandai Namco is launching their game on multiple platforms including PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam.
The Deluxe Edition of the game comes with a digital artbook, soundtrack, and other perks. Meanwhile, the Collector's Edition only contains physical items such as a Wylder Nightfarer statue, Steelbook, hardcover artbook, eight Nightfarer cards, and more.
There was a closed network test on February 14-17.
The Elden Ring universe features a new multiplayer game that allows players to cooperate with each other in a PvE setting. It will be released soon.
In this condensed action RPG, players will never experience the same journey twice as enemies, rewards, and Limveld itself are ever-shifting and evolving with each new session. Defeating greater enemies and venturing into the more dangerous parts of the map will uncover more powerful weapons and greater Rune rewards. Finding Sites of Grace gives each hero a chance to level up and gain crucial power. With each session-based adventure being akin to playing through an open-air dungeon, every journey provides an opportunity to grow lasting stat bonuses. Successful runs against the night bring players ever closer to defeating the Nightlord and unraveling the story behind each Nightfarer in this parallel world.
In February 2022, Elden Ring was released on various platforms including PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam. It quickly sold over 12 million units worldwide in March 2022, surpassing Call of Duty: Vanguard as the best-selling game in the U.S. in the last 12 months ending in April 2022. Its DLC expansion Shadow of the Erdtree was released in June 2022 on all of those same platforms via Steam.
Miyazaki and Martin worked together on developing the game world for Dark Souls, Dark Souls III, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.

Additionally, the game was awarded a Grand Prize in December 2022 at the PlayStation Partner Awards.
