Elden Ring, devised by Game of Thrones creator George R.R. Martin and Dark Souls visionary Hidetaka Miyazaki, has upheld the traditions of its predecessors by delivering a challenging and beautifully-realized world to players. Elden Ring features a long and grueling story that forces players to fight to their limits using whatever tools they can find. One of the most important aspects of the gameplay are the spells that players can acquire, though gaining new magic can pose a challenge.
