Elden ring promises to be the most ambitious project ever created Fromsoftware, but so far we practically do not know anything about exactly how it will differ from previous studio releases. A new rumor indicates that one of the elements that will highlight the game against the backdrop of SoulsBorne and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice will be the design of the world.
User with nickname Omni, who in the past proved to have access to InsideSoftware insider information, said that Elden Ring’s game design is a big improvement over the Souls series.
According to the informant, the terrain structure of the new game was inspired by Scotland, and the open world, or rather, the “open field”, as described by its insider, was created with an eye to Shadow of the colossus, whose authors managed to perfectly convey the sense of scale. Wherein many elements of the world, such as the location of enemies, will dynamically change on their own, like systems related to weather and the cyclical change of day. However, the developers did not completely abandon small locations in the spirit of Dark Souls, so the diversity of the environment promises to be high. There will be many enemies too, and opponents will become much smarter and will be able to come up with complex strategies to kill a player.
“As a person who is not a fan of most openworld titles (especially AAA) of recent decades (including BOTW), I would say that if you are in the same boat as me, then you have nothing to worry about in terms of how FromSoftware designs its “open world,” and that’s the reason they turn away even from calling it “open world,” moving to the concept of “open field.” This designation indicates greater openness compared to past games and at the same time keep themselves away from popular mercilessly exploited open-world trends and, at the same time, they are not limited to this formulation: “. So, we created the Dark Souls, but now the area is large enough to move between them on horseback.”
Elements of design and general direction, especially with regard to the open world, is one of the things that I plan to talk about and delve into in the future. Now I can say that there will be both open sections and more corridor segments, as in previous games. “
Among other things, Omni also confirmed the presence of a multiplayer component in the Elden Ringbut he has no details about the form in which it will be presented. As for more detailed information, Omni does not want to share it yet, since the game is far from over and the gameplay mechanics are subject to frequent changes.
The project is created for Xbox one, Playstation 4 and PC.
