Miyazaki says there's at least one more secret in Elden Ring he doesn't think anyone has found yet. So roll up your sleeves and get on it.

"For me personally, there is a small element that I feel has not yet been discovered,"

Miyazaki says in an IGN interview.

"So, whether that's up to user interpretation or up to just further investigation and playing, that's something I'm looking forward to. I think it's a question of when and not if, but there may be something small still missing."

[SlimeGooGoo]

You can give best girl Melina a kissu, I WANT TO BELIEVE

 

[LectureMaster]

There is another wall/door that you can break after 1000 hits.

 

[intbal]

How does he know this?
Unless the game's telemetry reports back on the events of every secret.

 

[Kacho]

r/eldenring

 

[killatopak]

NG+ unlockable summon maidens with unique interaction with Varre at the beginning of the game.

 

[AJUMP23]

Probably a swamp somewhere he didn't poison.

 

[Mithos]

I KNEW THERE WAS A SECRET EASY MODE!

YEAH!

 

[Thief1987]

Some super secret cave which is not being made through randomizer!

 

[CoreyFlawless]

lol oh hell, everyone gonna be trying to figure this one out for sure. He say small too, so something that just not a big deal or anything

 

[Doom85]

Sorry, Miyazaki, you're a god tier developer, but you already pulled this stunt before with Dark Souls 1 and that one starting item that does seemingly nothing but you said it secretly does do something and only later revealed you were lying. Maybe he's legit this time to keep throwing us off, but I choose not to believe the boy crying wolf even if there may be a real wolf this time.

 

[Fake]

Ranni boss fight.

LOL. He did this to drum up PR?

 

[FUBARx89]

Wouldn't be surprised if he's just trolling again like he was when he said he'd pick the pendant in Dark Souls as the starting gift. People went batshit for years trying to work out why it was special, then he said it wasn't and it was just a prank.

IN a nutshell.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

LOL. He did this to drum up PR?

He doesn't roll like this.

 

[Scotty W]

This is what gamers deserve.

 

[DavidGzz]

Unless it's a hidden arcade cabinet that lets me play Bloodborne at 60+ fps, idc.

 

[Danjin44]

Miyazaki dont do this to me I cant replay Elden Ring for 100th time when we have most stacked year.....

 

[Fess]

Probably some bs multiple wall-hit secret.
I've heard about a wall that goes away after 30 hits. I don't understand how anyone can have found that. Data mining?

 

[newtypepilot]

 

[ShirAhava]

too fast for the naked eyeeeee

 

[Carmen Winstead]

Probably another hidden door with a Rune Arc.

 

[GrayChild]

Hopefully it's another poison swamp area. Miyazaki-sama should do even more of them.

 

[Bernardougf]

A door that leads to a good souls game.

 

[Thief1987]

A door that leads to a good souls game.

They can't do that anymore

 

[Badlucktroll]

It has been FOUND

 

[Ribi]

It's probably a piece of rock that has initials on it somewhere in bum fuck no where. Congratulations you spent 3M hours to find a rock... Don't you feel accomplished!?!

 

[SJRB]

Cool! I thought the game had been datamined to hell and back by now.

 

[Hudo]

Harem ending, obviously.

 

[NeoIkaruGAF]

You shouldn't encourage autistic behavior.
This man and his games are hazardous to people's mental health.

 

[Mr Hyde]

I wonder if this secret can rival Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain, where a player unraveled a secret after 14 years of hiding.

14 years after release, a massive explorable pirate ship is found in Blood Omen: LOK

Over on the Eidos forums, a user by the name of Rusminin has posted a discovery made during the work on Blood Omen Omnicide (an active 3D fan-remake of the original game). It seems while exploring one of Nosgoth's many villages for research purposes, the team discovered a passage that had...

[Morrie’s wig shop]

What about…… that portal by the Third Church of Marika??

 

[Kiya's Guard]

You can actually pet the turtle Pope. We only need to find how.

Serious comment now, is this a pr move to raise the hype levels of the game, engagement and even more sales?

 

[Fret Runner]

Akuma makes his first secret cameo return since the original Resident Evil 2!

 

[Saber]

Willing to bet its a very subtle hint or easter egg that requires things people aren't used to do.

Either that or a different poison swamp.

 

[cash_longfellow]

PC folk would have figured any secret of substance out by now.

 

[Ulysses 31]

Legit way to get these?

 

[omegasc]

Ranni boss fight.

We all lost to her already.

 

[Jaybe]

Probably need to use the Konami code somewhere

 

[Arsic]

Likely just a ring no one has found yet.

 

[BouncyFrag]

Needle in a haystack with a haystack the size of the moon.

 

[NinjaBoiX]

How does he know this?
Unless the game's telemetry reports back on the events of every secret.

My thoughts exactly.

Just a baseless, nonsense comment, there's no way he could know this.

 

[Northeastmonk]

It could be that the game means something special to him and people just don't get it.

 

[near]

My thoughts exactly.

Just a baseless, nonsense comment, there's no way he could know this.

There are guides, walkthroughs, lore videos, community discussions which pretty much compile everything. I'm sure he's team look through these things. Based on what he's saying in that interview, imo, it doesn't seem like it is an item or a hidden area that he is hinting at.

 

[Swagballs717]

Rumor has it when this secret is found, it will unlock the difficulty selection

 

[night13x]

Maybe he took a page from Yoko Taro and nier Automata. If you stand in a very specific position on a very specific random mountain and then enter the konami code 5 times, then 5 times backwords - easy mode is unlocked.

Secret ultra hard mode that makes grown men cry?
