Elden Ring is an open-world action RPG developed by FromSoftware, best known for the famously difficult Dark Souls series. Players will tackle the monsters found in The Lands Between in what is a challenging but rewarding experience. CNET’s Dan Van Boom called it “spectacular” in his review, and critics as well as players say the same.
