A new, massive and ambitious license from Japanese studio FromSoftware, Elden Ring has officially surpassed 12 million copies sold worldwide.
With Elden Ring, FromSoftware brought to life the carefully crafted universe and stories envisioned by Hidetaka Miyazaki, creator of Dark Souls, and George R.R. Martin, creator of the hit fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire. With twelve million copies sold in less than three weeks, the new RPG for hardcore gamers, but now more accessible to some gamers, confirms its current popularity.
“ It’s amazing how many people have played Elden Ring. I would like to express our sincere gratitude on behalf of the entire development team,” said Hidetaka Miyazaki, FromSoftware President and CEO. “ Elden Ring is based on a mythological story written by George R.R. Martin. We hope players will enjoy the high level of freedom as they venture into this vast world, exploring many secrets and facing many threats. Thank you for your continued support.”
Transmedia coming soon for Elden Ring with the help of Bandai Namco and Kadokawa Corporation.
While publishing house Yen Press has released The Overture of Elden Ring, an alphabet book that explores the dark fantasy world of Elden Ring, from the beginning of the month digitally Bandai Namco and media conglomerate Kadokawa Corporation will want to expand with expanding license knowledge through transmedia: “A lot of effort has been put into creating Elden Ring and exceeding the expectations of our fans around the world. With the same goal, we will continue our efforts to develop the brand outside of the game itself and in everyone’s daily life. We will continue to bring pleasure and satisfaction through entertainment so that we can communicate with our fans around the world. “
