Action-RPG colossus Elden Ring is reportedly getting a free-to-play mobile adaptation with in-app purchases, which takes inspiration from miHoYo’s Genshin Impact. It’s being published by Tencent, who apparently acquired the licensing rights to Elden Ring back in 2022 and put a few dozen people to work on a prototype, even as the company acquired a 16% stake in Elden Ring developer From Software.

    I actually just ordered a physical copy the other day, I’m finally in the mood to play it. I was surprised it was $50 but still, NO RAGRETS.

      I mean I also want cheaper games but if gtav and skyrim still sell for upwards of $40 or $50 then elden ring should be at least that much lol

        Yeah, I don’t mind it for Elden Ring. Souls games have their way of getting me to do back to back playthroughs, something I rarely do with most games, so I know I’m going to get my money’s worth.
