FromSoftware’s Souls successor has enjoyed an unprecedented degree of success: Elden Ring won over 400 Game of the Year awards from gaming and entertainment publications by January 31, 2023, beating 2020’s The Last of Us Part 2 as the most awarded game of all time.

Many fans will be wishing for DLC announcements following the discovery of unused “DLC01” data within the game and hints dropped by creator Hidetaka Miyazaki and Kadokawa, but no such promises have been made for the event as of yet.
