Elden Ring Details
If you want to hype yourself up before the release, here’ the overview trailer for the game. If you want to go in fresh, however, you might want to skip it because there’s quite a few game details in it.
Here’s a basic description of the story:
The Lands Between is ruled by great heroes; those who have inherited the blood of Queen Marika the Eternal.
You play as a descendant of the Tarnished; a group of heroes once banished from the Lands Between.
When the Elden Ring was shattered, the very source of the Erdtree’s blessing was disrupted, and eventually the exiled Tarnished found themselves being led once more by long-lost grace.
As a Tarnished, you’ll set off on a journey to the Lands Between, rich with mystery and fraught with danger to face the former heroes of this world.
