Staying on the subject of awards, we remind you that Elden Ring , the epic soulslike open world from FromSoftware also triumphed in the Game of The Year category at The Game Awards 2022. In our review, we praised the splendid work done by the team underlining that “Elden ring is the highest point ever reached by FromSoftware. A new way of conceiving the genre that marks the beginning of a new and disruptive era for Miyazaki’s team. Enhanced by an enlightened art direction and an unprecedented approach to exploration that enhances and intensifies the player’s sense of discovery and freedom, the title returns familiar elements and sensations to fans, managing to make the most of all the potential of the new open context world. Net of some rather marked inaccuracies on the technical front, Elden Ring is even more majestic, richer and more satisfying than we could have ever imagined. A playful, intense and all-encompassing experience that we won’t forget for a long, long time. ”
