This is a rage-filled boss that can make any Bloodborne player completely question the way they have played the game thus far. It requires more dodging than previous bosses and keeps players on their toes. One wrong move can quickly be the end of t
Further support for the leak being a hoax lies in the fact that a ransomware attack will naturally demand some form of payment from its target. When Cyberpunk 2077 studio CD Projekt Red was hacked , they received a ransom note demanding payment with the threat of releasing information. It makes little sense for ALPHV to hack into Bandai Namco’s servers, steal sensitive data, and then give out vital information they are holding hostage for f
Fia’s quest line brings the Tarnished face to face with Godwyn’s corpse. At one point in the quest, the Tarnished enters Fia, the Deathbed Companion’s Dream , and fights the Lichdragon Fortissax in an arena in front of the Prince of Death. The concept of entering dreams opens the possibility of meeting Godwyn in his younger state. It could also be possible to encounter the real Godwyn, the Golden, by traveling back in time, something the player does when they fight the Dragonlord Placidu
**Elden Ring ** DLC will likely be announced any day now, and there are plenty of characters that FromSoftware can bring back to star in the expansion. Leaks and rumors point toward the Badlands, an area far from the Lands Between, being the setting for the DLC. Notable characters Nepheli Loux and Godfrey, The First Elden Lord, are from this region, so it's possible they could make an appearance. However, the accuracy of the leaks is in question, which means other characters are more plausible candidates to ret
Queen Marika, the ruler of The Lands Between in **Elden Ring ** , has ties to people and places that may point to her actually being a Mimic from the Eternal Cities. This Elden Ring theory has evolved in the months since the game launched. It may sound outlandish at first but makes a lot of sense when considering the existential video game themes’s penchant for hidden plots and alternate identities. The theory also has significant in-game evidence to back it
However, the right tactic can be employed for players with a strong enough attack that can one-shot the boss with a single hit. One way this works well is by using the anti-magic field to keep her from attacking letting you charge up a powerful b
The intersections of Marika’s plans with those of the Nox and Ranni provide enough circumstantial evidence to suggest that Marika may be the lord the Nox tried to forge with the Silver Tears. If she truly is a Mimic, this also explains her ability to transform into Radagon. The plots these individuals set forth have been in play long before the events of **Elden Ring ** . When the player Tarnished arrives in The Lands Between, they will have a crucial role in the outcome of these plans. Assuming the player chooses Ranni’s Age of Stars ending, it's possible Marika and the Nox will be proven victori
FromSoftware typically reuses assets across its games for practical purposes, such as the same weapons and animations appearing in multiple games, and this will likely be the case for FromSoftware's next game after Elden Ring . These similarities are not necessarily connections or references, though. Instead, they are merely efficient use of assets for game design. However, FromSoftware occasionally places items and assets in its games which fuel theories about connections between the worlds and themes of the Soulslike ga
The first phase isn't too bad for players who are good at fighting long-distance, in fact, the whole boss fight is a bit easier for those players. But for players who are much more used to the typical hack-and-slash style the game promotes will have a far more difficult time. Thankfully, the bonfire is right beside the boss r
Godfrey continued making history in the Lands Between when he went to war with the Giants because their fire threatened the safety of the Erdtree. However, after defeating the Storm Lord alone, Godfrey lost his guidance of grace and warrior spirit. Godfrey became Elden Ring 's first Tarnished, exiled by Marika along with all his warriors. Godfrey leads his warriors on a long march and eventually takes back the name Hoarah Loux, becoming chieftain of the Badland warriors until the events of the game bring him back to mend the Golden Order. As interesting as this information may be, some large questions have not been answe
There is a probable chance that the Barbarians of the Badlands DLC and the other leaked games titles are a hoax, but anything is still possible until more is known. According to the leaked image, the Badlands DLC is set to be released during Q3 of 2023 but assuming this is a larger DLC, then that would fit the general timeline of FromSoftware DLC release dates. Until the company releases information about the DLC or more authentic leaks are pushed out, _Elden Ring _ fans may continue to brush this off as a h![]()
