6. Mount Up, We've Got Fighting To Do

For the first time in what's considered a modern From Software game, you'll be able to get a mount in Elden Ring.

Not only that, but this also introduces mounted combat for the first time too! This combat is said to be just like the rest of Souls combat; methodical, calculated and requiring strategy to succeed.

It's also said that some bosses will directly require the use of mounted combat.

Outside of fighting, you can use your mount to get around the field area quicker than on foot. You can only use your mount in the field, and will have to leave it behind when entering a kingdom.

It gets even more exciting too; while your mount at first is allegedly a horse, the game also features a host of unlockable mounts such as a wolf, bear, tiger and some other completely unique designs exclusive to Elden Ring.
