Since its release in 2022, “Elden Ring” has taken the gaming world by storm, selling over 30 million copies globally. This achievement places it alongside iconic titles like “Borderlands 2,” “Call of Duty: Black Ops,” and “Diablo 3.”
Debuting on February 25, 2022, the game delighted fans with a major DLC expansion, “Shadow of the Erdtree,” on June 21. From launch to now, 30 million gamers on both PC and console have embarked on adventures in The Lands Between. What’s remarkable is that players embraced the challenge, diving into the game despite its notorious difficulty.
Commercially and critically acclaimed, both the base game and its DLC have received glowing reviews. The transition from the “Dark Souls” series to an open-world format resonated well with both fans and critics. Even though the game retained the classic “Dark Souls” level of difficulty, it underwent specific nerfs and balance tweaks to ease the experience slightly.
What’s next for From Software with this impressive milestone? While it’s anyone’s guess, the company is clearly aware of its adored status. Upcoming is “Elden Ring Nightreign,” a cooperative spin-off that uses much of the original game’s world and assets, with a fresh twist. It’s safe to say From Software might just continue to extract success from this rich genre.
