Liberating choice awaits in 'Elden Ring,' by the creators of 'Dark Souls' and 'Game of Thrones'

Kitao said FromSoftware is aware that many Dark Souls players have found its stories to be fairly impenetrable and difficult to decipher. Like the studio's previous game "Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice," "Elden Ring" will have an easier-to-grasp main narrative, though the game will retain multiple branching paths and endings. Dark Souls games are famous for their environmental storytelling, which is a big part of the franchise's allure despite its famously challenging gameplay. Kitao promises there will be plenty for players to dig through, analyze and uncover.
