The development of Elden Ring has started since the completion of DLC production of Soul of Darkness 3. The development team wants to build this work into a new dark fantasy action RPG, which contains a lot of content that the Dark Soul series cannot achieve. When talking about the origin of the name of "Elden Ring", Miyazaki Yinggao said that it is a mysterious concept name that defines the world itself. "Elden Ring", like the "Ring" in "The Lord of the Rings", is a powerful magic weapon, and the person who gets it will have supreme power.
