All Elden Ring Info available on the Internet

• six major areas that function as distinct dungeons, ruled by demigod characters (you don't have to follow an order)
• hub confirmed
• catacombs, castles, fortresses, mini dungeons etc.
• confident that Elden Ring will arrive on its release date
• character creator
• multiple endings
• much higher degree of freedom than before
• optional bosses
• Battle arts from DS3 return but are not fixed to a weapon (~100 techniques)
• Spirits can be collected and equipped apparently (summons)
• different types of spirits (use them for assaults, as decoy, for defense etc)
• Spirits can be improved apparently
• There are also rather useless spirits with other traits
• multiplayer support during exploration on the open fields (but you are not able to ride your horses in multiplayer apparently)
• ER is more "manageable" due to the many different options the player has but there are still many tough enemies
• fall damage is low to keep explorers motivated
• there is a world map
• the actual dungeons do not have a map
• crafting system with materials
• Miyazaki guesses playtime is maybe at 30 hours "without too many side trips"
• asynchrous multiplayer elements return; you can apparently set up groups (with friends for example) and give their messages/dead bodies etc. higher priority (keyword system, no limit on group size)

• Jumping, riding horse
• Summon spirits of fallen enemies as allies and tag along with them.
• Stamina bar exists but with less influence
• No resurrection, but other systems to keep you in the flow: Customize/craft "as you go", more healing options
• Combine different skills (100 total) with different weapons, learn magic, more customization options.
• Simple stealth implementation: crouch, hide in long grass, stealth attack
• Online co-op

• Central hub that leads to 6 main areas in The Lands Between.
• Each main area has a dungeon. Order to tackle them is up to the player, but there are some limitations. To help the player there is a mainline route to optionally follow.
• Other catacombs, castles, and fortresses outside of the main dungeons are located in The Lands Between.
• Fast travel for long distances.
• Weapons/magic etc can be bought, but most are hidden in the open world.

• Player is nameless blank slate, but other characters have a lot of color/ulterior motives/mystery.
• Player is a tarnished: they have lost the grace (golden aura) of the Elden Ring / Erdtree and exiled from The Lands Between.
• Once the Elden Ring is broken, the tarnished are called back to The Lands Between. This includes the player character, as well as other characters.
• The main bosses of the game are the 6 demigods ("ancient gods"). They hold various shards of the Elden Ring, inherit different powers, and have become corrupted.
• Ease of understanding balanced with a lot of depth for players to uncover.

• Foundation/mythos for the world.
• The concept of the "tarnished".
• Name of "The Lands Between".
• The 6 demigods.

• Game development started with the world building due to GRRM involvement, and after that game systems were developed (opposite to the usual Miyazaki style).
• Mimics won't return in their DS form, but there will be surprises

I imagine there's a lot that's difficult to imagine, difficult to grasp, but as far as I'm concerned, after my 10 years or so of directing games, this really feels like a culmination of everything that I've enjoyed about game development and everything I've brought to this point. I really, really hope that as a fan of the games, you'll enjoy it.
