From Software and Namco Bandai have teamed up to release a completely new action RPG " ELDEN RING ".
The game was scheduled to be released on January 21, 2022 (Friday), but the release date has been postponed to February 25, 2022 (Friday) for the happy reason that "the volume of the game and the degree of freedom in strategy exceeded our initial expectations, so we are extending the period for final adjustments. I have no complaints! We will wait!
Although the call for participants has already been closed, a network test is scheduled to be conducted from November 12, 2021 (Friday) to November 15, 2021 (Sunday).
As the launch of the game is slowly approaching, a gameplay video of "ELDEN RING " was released on Thursday, November 4, 2021, at 23:00 !
Run around the beautiful and eerie vast map!
In the "ELDEN RING - Gameplay Preview," you can watch about 15 minutes of gameplay footage of "ELDEN RING.
In this 15-minute gameplay video, you can see the game's enemies (soldiers, creatures, etc.) and new characters as they ride around on horseback on a vast map with From's familiar beautiful, yet eerie atmosphere.
The beauty, smoothness, and unique atmosphere of the video cannot be described in words, so please watch the video!
It honestly looks very interesting and I have nothing but high expectations for it!
There are still a little over 3 months until the release of the game, but if you have been playing the games released in the recent rush of new releases, it will be soon, so let's just relax and wait!
The video is in English, so if you are not good at English, please turn on the subtitle function to watch the video!
Reservations for package and download versions are now open!
Along with the release of the gameplay video, pre-orders for the downloadable version for each platform are now being accepted.
And from November 5, 2021 (Friday), reservations for the packaged version will be available at all retailers!
Of course, there are limited editions as well as standard editions, and what will be sold will differ depending on the platform, so I would like to introduce the formats and special offers!
First of all, the standard packaged version will be available on PS4, PS5, and Steam. The price is 9,240 yen (tax included).
In addition to the packaged version of the game, you will also receive a limited edition Adventure Guide (A4 size), a map poster, and the "Ring Pose" gesture that you can use in the game.
Please note that upgrades from PS4 to PS5 are supported, but not for the packaged version if the PS5 is a digital edition without a disk drive.
The standard downloadable version will then be available on all platforms, including PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X, and Steam. The price is 9,240 yen (tax included).
In addition to the full game, a digital application containing useful information for adventures in the land between the worlds and a "ring pose" gesture that can be used in the game will be given as a limited edition bonus.

An exclusive downloadable digital edition is also available.
The game will be available on all platforms, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X, and Steam, and will be priced at 9,900 yen (tax included).
The game includes a digital art book and soundtrack, and allows players to enjoy the beautiful graphics and magnificent music of the "ELDEN RING" world.
The limited edition of the game also includes a digital application with useful information for adventures in the land between the worlds, and the "Ring Pose" gesture that can be used in the game.
The PS4 and PS5 packaged versions of the game will also be available in a Collector's Edition, which will include a "Pose of the Ring" gesture that can be used in the game.
The packaged version of the game includes a 23cm statue of "Michaela's Blade, Marenia", a 40-page hardcover art book, a digital soundtrack, and a steel book!
In addition, you will also receive a limited edition Adventure Guide (A4 size) with useful information for your adventures in the land between the worlds, a map poster, and the "Ring Pose" gesture that you can use in the game as a special gift. The "Collector's Edition" is aptly named.
The price is 24,200 yen (including tax), but some e-commerce sites are already selling it for more than the regular price.
Be sure to pay attention to the sales price when purchasing.
The Premium Collector's Edition will be sold exclusively on Enterbrain's online shopping site "ebten "!
This edition includes the contents of the "Collector's Edition" plus a helmet replica (1/1 scale), and is limited to 10 sets for both PS4 and PS5, making it a super, super premium edition!
The helmet replica (1/1 scale) will be very hard to find in Japan, so you don't want to miss this chance!
The Premium Collector's Edition will not be sold on a first-come, first-served basis, but by lottery.
Lottery applications are being accepted at ebten from Friday, November 5, 2021 to Thursday, November 11, 2021 at 23:59. You will receive notification of your winning/not winning by e-mail during Friday, November 12, 2021.
If you are selected, your order will be confirmed as is; if you are not selected, your order will be automatically cancelled.
The price will be 40,480 yen (including tax) due to the ultra-luxurious contents, but even so, the odds are likely to be high.
The limited number of 10 sets will be narrow, but why not take your chances!
Also, each retailer may have special offers for the packaged version, so be sure to check when you make your reservation!
