âSmallâ secret still waiting to be uncovered in âElden Ringâ
Elden Ring director Hidetaka Miyazaki has revealed there is still a âsmallâ secret waiting to be uncovered in the base game.
Released two years ago, Elden Ring has become known as a modern masterpiece, with players exploring every inch of the world created by Miyazaki and FromSoftware.
However, in a new interview with IGN, Miyazaki has revealed there is still something hidden within the game that players have yet to discover.
âWe donât set out to create a difficult game. We set out to create a challenging game. And in order to achieve that, we need there to be threats and dangers, and we need there to be unknowns,â he explained, with creators looking to curate a sense of discovery.
âOur main idea is just to trust players,â Miyazaki continued. âWe trust that theyâll overcome these challenges and we trust that theyâll make these discoveries. And I think giving them trust just creates a healthy landscape for them to play and adventure.â
He went on to say team Elden Ring was always âsurprised and delightedâ by how much the players actually uncover. âFor me personally, there is a small element that I feel has not yet been discovered,â he added. âSo, whether thatâs up to user interpretation or up to just further investigation and playing, thatâs something Iâm looking forward to. I think itâs a question of when and not if, but there may be something small still missing.â
Last week, FromSoftware confirmed the release date of Elden Ringâs long-awaited expansion Shadow Of The Erdtree alongside an impressive gameplay trailer. Miyazaki has since confirmed that George R.R. Martin has not written any new lore for the expansion but has teased a sequel.
âWe donât want to say this is the end of the Elden Ring saga for now,â said Miyazaki. Shadow Of The Erdtree releases June 21.
In other news, Warner Bros. has said the launch of Rocksteadyâs Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League has not met their expectations. The âkey releaseâ has apparently left the company facing a âtough yearâ.
