To call Elden Ring a success would be an understatement. The latest evolution on the Dark Souls formula, this open-world action-roleplaying game made by FromSoftware has taken the gaming world by storm. Between Elden Ring's lore written in collaboration with fantasy maestro George R. R. Martin, and the team behind Dark Souls and Bloodborne helming an open-world take on the genre, Elden Ring had a lot of hype going for it, and not only has the game matched those lofty expectations, it surpassed them.
