Elden Ring: a film would be under study around the best game of 2022

Following the success ofElden Ringin 2022 and beyond; the excellence of its newly released DLC, there is logically reason to think about this; the future, and even to the future. export the brand beyond the borders of video games. The idea of ​​a film would be to the study.

Shadow of the Erdtree, the perfect sequel to Elden Ring

All eyes have been on the Elden Ring DLC since its release on June 21. From Software promised a significant new challenge to players who marveled at the 2022 Game of the Year, and the studio didn't lie. With an all-new gigantic area, new enemies and Bosses, new weapons and new secrets,Shadow of the Erdtreeis much more than a simple DLC, a game within the game that once again shakes up the recipe for revolutionary game design of soulslike acclaimed.

This by its verticality and the connection of its zones, which recalls the recipe of the previous soulsike. À This adds sumptuous new environments, and above all very varied. The director of FromSoftware, Hidetaka Miyasaki and his teams have redoubled their efforts. of ingenuity to bluff players who are already amazed by the approach of the original game.

Elden Ring soon on the big screen?

With such success, it's hard not to consider what's next. Another DLC? An Elden Ring 2? Hidetaka Miyazaki is not insensitive to sirens, far from it. He declared that everything was possible, without really revealing anything.

But against all expectations, the license could be exported outside the borders of video games. In a recent interview with The Guardian, the leader of From Software leté hearing that a film would be an option consider the future.

I see no reason to refuse another interpretation or adaptation of Elden Ring, a film for example.”

The developer nevertheless remains cautious on such an extremely challenging project, which must be developed in a timely manner. by competent studios in the field.

But I don't think I, nor From Software, have the knowledge or ability to do this. to produce something on a different medium. So that’s where it’s at. “We'll have to build a lot of trust and agreement on whatever we're trying to achieve, but there's definitely interest.”

There is no doubt that the project has already been implemented. Summer studied. Particularly since adaptations of big names in video games into films and series are flourishing everywhere (The Last of Us, Fallout, Gran Turismo, and soon  Borderlandsor The Legend of Zelda), and following the success thatSuper Mario Bros. generated in cinemas (the most big success of the year 2023 with 1.36 billion euros at the worldwide box office). But be careful though; do not give in to ease, at the risk of producing yet another turnip (Uncharted) and distorting the license.
