Elden Ring: details for history and setting

According to the site, the story will revolve around the fragments of theElden Ring, the source of the power ofErdtree, in search of which numerous entities such as demigods have launched themselves, the progeny of Queen Marika and many others. Known as Great Rune, such fragments could cause a fierce war, called The Shattering, which would lead to the abandonment of the Greater Will, a mysterious and great power that the player will encounter at some point in the game. Task of the player, in the role of Tarnished, will be to stand before theElden Ring and become theLord of the Hand, so as to ideally put an end to the conflict.

The protagonist will be a dead man who still lives, an element that seems to be an ideal point in common with Dark Souls. In addition to learning about further aspects of theElden Ring, the player will also meet a certain number of characters, each driven by their own motivations, who can turn out to be both allies and enemies. Obviously there will also be monstrous creatures and opponents characterized by a deep background.

We remind you that the game is scheduled for Xbox Series X / S, PS4, PS5, PC and Xbox One, with a release date set for January 21, 2022.
