The Elden Ring Game Awards Trailer Shares the Game’s History

Today, Bandai Namco shared a new video for The Elden Ring, the new game from Dark Souls and Bloodborne director Hidetaka Miyazaki. The game was announced just last month, but the publisher has been dropping details on the game since March. Bandai Namco recently shared a bit about the game’s story, which has a lot of ties to the lore of the first two games. The publisher also shared a bit about the game’s characters, which will be entirely new.

This week, Bandai Namco shared a new video that gives a brief history of the game’s story. The Elden Ring was once a peaceful place, but it was destroyed during the war between the gods and the dragons. Now, a new war is brewing and the world is in danger of being destroyed. The world needs a hero.

At the Game Awards, Hidetaka Miyazaki took to the stage to unveil a brand-new trailer for his upcoming game, The Elden Ring. The trailer, which you can watch below, focuses on the history of the Elden Ring game. It’s a dark, gorgeous game that blends magic, monsters, and Miyazaki’s favored themes of destruction and despair.

The Elden Ring is the spiritual successor to the Souls series, which was also made by Miyazaki. It’s in the same vein of challenging, brutal, and interesting games. Check out the trailer below, and we’ll keep you updated when we hear more about the game.
