From its highly anticipated pre-release life to its overwhelmingly positive reviews, Elden Ring is a game that has caused a lot of buzz. FromSoftware is known for its staggeringly complex and well-designed titles like the beloved Dark Souls series and games like Bloodborne and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, and the developer's latest release is no different. Combining the worldbuilding expertise of Game of Thrones author George R. R. Martin with the game design capabilities of Hidetaka Miyazaki and his team has turned out to be a recipe for success. The result: Elden Ring has taken the video game world by storm.
