This would be a big surprise for both Dark Soul and Game of Thrones' fans: Elden Ring - a brand-new fantasy action adventure title - is being developed by their favorite game maker and their beloved fantasy writer.
In Microsoft's press conference at E3 2019, Elden Ring has been announced along with its first cinematic trailer. Like other titles that were molded by Hidetaka Miyazaki, the trailer looks mysterious and obscure, but it's enjoyable to the very last moment.
Maybe it's a bit difficult for people to understand when there are lots of separate details showed up: some ghastly characters, the mysterious broken ring, the burning sky, the scaring arms. This cinematic footage has suggested Elden Ring will be a promising fantasy game, even when there has been no storyline revealed.
Fans have all the right to expect more sturdy storytelling than the previous Souls titles due to the engagement of George R. R. Martin. Of course, that doesn't mean FromSoftware's narrative had any problem. It's just the new stuff they are trying to do that sounds very promising to the fans. Martin is an amazing writer and his collab with Miyazaki and FromSoftware's team will much likely to result in an outstanding game title.
Generally speaking, Microsoft's press conference at E3 2019 is good. They revealed some interesting news, but Elden Ring and Keanu Reeves have obviously stolen the show. The announcement for Xbox Scarlett is acceptable, and for some reasons, the trailer for Halo was kind of boring. That must be a weird experience for those who attended the press personally.
"This is a FromSoftware title through and through,” said Hidetaka Miyazaki - the game director. “We sincerely hope you look forward to it.”
