It now seems that Elden Ring 2 may have been confirmed following an interview with the original game's director, Hidetaka Miyazaki. As shared in a Reddit post by user AnchovyKing, Miyazaki said in a newly released 'Elden Ring Future Press Guide' that some of the Elden Ring lore has been 'saved for future games'.

Of course, this is by no means official confirmation that Elden Ring 2 is on the way, though its high critical and commercial success should pretty much guarantee that. Yet, it's also worth keeping in mind that saving Elden Ring lore for "future games" wouldn't make much sense to be included in its other properties, though some have theorised that FromSoftware titles may be connected in some way.

Peace be upon him

 

[Northeastmonk]

We need the DLC

 

[R6Rider]

I'll just go ahead and pre-order 2 and 3.

 

[Banjo64]

Thought it was a given. DaS is now complete and ER is the next chapter. I'd expect a trilogy and then on to another evolution in the formula.

Okay it will be a smaller map overall, but twice is long.

Good enough?

 

[The Thick Tyne]

Ugh. I want DS4

 

[LordOfChaos]

[Tarin02543]

I'm hyped!

 

[AJUMP23]

It is their most successful game so no surprise.

 

[Juza]

It's planned to be a trilogy.

 

[Elder Legend]

Elden Ring is the Dark Souls of this generation. Meaning that it's the one that will get actual sequels and is going to be a full established franchise.

Bloodbonre and Sekiro were more experimental 1 time try outs.

If the rumor of their next game is true, then it's going to be Spellbound which will be the experimental one of this generation. And after that most likely Elden Ring 2.

Super stoked. Bring it.

 

[Danjin44]

Replaying Elden Ring recently made me love that game all over again so I'm all in for both DLC and sequel……also Sekiro 2 ….pretty please.

[Danjin44]

I usually against big open world but both FROM and Monolith Soft are master at it so I don't mind they make huge open world.

 

[Laieon]

Lost Kingdoms 3 bros, we lost.

 

[The Thick Tyne]

Nah let him cook. You want a giant as map with a bunch of the same bosses repainted?

 

[Represent.]

This was confirmed the second it sold 12 million lol

 

[Dacvak]

What's the over-under for there being sky islands?

 

[Danjin44]

Most games have repainted enemies and bosses, even games that are not open world. Compare to any other game Elden Ring has crazy amount of enemy and boss variety.

As in, Crumbling Farum Azula?

[skneogaf]

I'd prefer bloodborne 2, dark souls 4 or even demon's souls 2 before elden ring 2 but I'd happily love it too.

Sekiro is their worst game. Bloodborne 2 is what we really need.

FUUUUUUUCK NO! Sekiro is one of my favourite FROM game.

Mods.....

 

[Fbh]

After how much it sold the real news would have been if they announced that it wasn't getting a sequel.

Most games have reprinted enemies and bosses, even games that are not open world. Compare to any other game Elden Ring has crazy amount of enemy and boss variety.

Yeah I never understood that complain about Elden Ring.
It reuses some bosses, sure.... but it still has better enemy and boss variety than the vast majority of open world games (or RPG's to be honest).
Some of the optional bosses are better than any main boss in 99% of open world games.

 

[Elder Legend]

It's a well designed game don't get me wrong and a great game on its own. But I couldn't stand the Japanese theme of it and the world wasn't very interesting imo.

Then has more to do with your taste rather than being their "worst game".

Exactly, just look at God of War 2018, that game is barely open world and had pathetic amount of enemy variety.

Even God of War Ragnarök cant match enemy variety compare to Elden Ring.

 

[Elder Legend]

Disagree - it wasn't as true of a souls game as others in terms of mechanics. No mutliplayer, sense of exploration is much worse and the environments are boring as hell. It's good as an action game because of its combat but that's it.

I did enjoy some of the fights though like the Guardian Ape.

 

[_Idea_of_Evil_]

Sekiro is their worst game.

 

[NeverYouMind]

Sekiro is not a good action game because it lacks options for playstyle.

Because it wasn't trying to be "Souls" game, Sekiro is FROM's take on action game.

sense of exploration is much worse and the environments are boring as hell.

Are you fucking kidding me!? Again this has more to do with YOU not liking old Japanese era games.

 

[Mr Hyde]

Elden Ring was cool the first and second time then it just got boring and cumbersome. The game was just way too big with too much recycled content which hurt the replayability and build quality. I fire up Demon's, DS-trilogy and Bloodborne still to this day. Elden Ring not so much.

The only Jaoanese like game I really liked was the old school Onimusha titles. There was something different about them. God I want a new onimusha.

I also love the final fantasy series, but they are not really the traditional Japanese in terms of asthetics. I have to play FF16, no time

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

I was afraid this would happen even though Elden Ring is a great game it simply does not have the amazing level design and pacing of their very best games.

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

Still need a decent way to play Bloodborne.

 

[Bigfroth]

A sequel who would've thought , bring on the DLC bring on the the sequel I'm ready!

 

[Lokaum D+]

Still need

this ll be a Bluepoint game

 

[Gaelyon]

I just hope the sequel will be
Harder
Better
Faster
Stronger

 

[Brigandier]

Just please be smaller, for the love of God.

 

[OCL]

I'm 100% sure he's not gonna be the director of the game just like dark souls 2
