"I think that's because I'm a bad player, and then when he comes back we'll have a conversation about things that I think," Spencer said. Spencer also talked about how Miyazaki is "expanding his horizons" with Elden Ring, but says that doesn't apply to how the head of Xbox plays. Martin, who worked on the lore and universe of the game. Of course, the other creator he's talking about is Game of Thrones author George R. "I mean, I love his games, but seeing some of the gameplay mechanics stuff that he's tackling, he and the team are tackling this time, of the setting, working with another creator in terms of story. "As somebody who's played all of Miyazaki's games over at least the last decade, this is clearly the most ambitious game that he's done," Spencer said.

In an interview with GameSpot, Spencer was questioned about how much of Elden Ring he'd actually seen, and he said, "I've seen actually quite a bit.

In an unsuspected twist, the head of Xbox himself, Phil Spencer, talked about playing Elden Ring and what he thinks of it. That is, except unseen aid, which nobody should want. However, it wouldn't be a huge surprise if Xbox debuted Elden Ring, as they've marketed FromSoftware games before, such as Sekiro.Īs I mentioned earlier, all of these details may very well be inaccurate, although some of them would be nice to see. The leak also states that the first trailer will launch on July 21 at the Xbox Games event, but the event was recently revealed to be July 23. This just adds an arbitrary difficulty that you have almost no control over, which isn't what these games should be about. Instead of being able to retrieve your fallen goodies, your experience and money were reduced to half unless you rolled well enough on percentage die to get your stuff restored. One of the most annoying features, if true, is the return of an unseen aid system, which was in Sekiro. Bosses will have health bars similar to the Sekiro system and enemies are stronger at night but drop better loot. Other details include players having a ghost horse mount, an inventory management system similar to Demon's Souls, day/night cycles, checkpoints similar to bonfires, and no difficulty options whatsoever.Īdditionally, there are five main bosses and 12 regular bosses. There are no starting classes, but you can join covenants to change your "mastery." The leak comes from someone who claims to be on the team working on the Italian translation of Elden Ring.Ĭombing through this dump of short details, it states that Elden Ring will play similarly to Dark Souls 1 and 3 with an emphasis on a slower but more dynamic fighting style. However, credible leaks and info dumps have come to light via 4chan before, so it's not entirely implausible. It may be obvious, but take this "leak" with a ton of skepticism as it's coming from 4chan, which can harvest some shady claims. Some info about the gameplay recently leaked.
