Elden Ring
From Software fans have been waiting for almost two years for new official details about Elden Ring, which was first unveiled with a trailer at E3 2019. After a video for the game was leaked on the Internet at the beginning of March, fans had the hope that it might not be too long before From Software would publish its first gameplay for the action role-playing game.Here of course the E3 2021 in focus, which will take place in June in digital form. Because publisher Bandai Namco is also one of the participants in the event, the likelihood increases that Elden Ring may also be seen. VentureBeat editor Jeff Grubb has now lowered fans' expectations on Discord. According to him, the game from From Software is unlikely to make an appearance at E3 2021. It is said to have been the plan of those responsible, but the development team does not seem to get it there in time. In the course of the day, Grubb would like to comment on this in more detail.
Since the announcement of Elden Ring, the game has been one of the most anticipated titles among fans. In addition to Hidetaka Miyazaki, George R. R. Martin also contributed to the creation of the game world. According to the current financial report of From Software's parent company, Elden Ring will apparently only appear in stores in 2022. The game is only listed in the report for the next financial year. Elden Ring would therefore go on sale in April 2022 at the earliest.
