Summer Game Fest: 8 Biggest Announcements You Need To Know

8. Elden Ring

There was a lot of hype surrounding Elden Ring.

Not only was it being developed by the legendary developer FromSoftware, but the world was also being worked on by the legendary George R.R. Martin, writer of A Song of Ice and Fire, a series of books which got adapted into the so-good-until-it-wasn't TV series, Game of Thrones.

After the game was announced back at E3 2019 there was little news on the project. That was until yesterday when a full-blown just under three-minute trailer was shown off at Summer Game Fest.

The trailer shows off a beautiful yet miserable world that FromSoftware has become famous for creating.

Elden Ring could easily be mistaken for Dark Souls 4, as it has a similar art style, gameplay, and even bonfires make a return, but to be honest that isn't really a bad thing.

An even more open version of Dark Souls with a cool horse that will help you explore that huge world sounds perfect.

Elden Ring will be available on PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and PC on January 21, 2022.
