Meanwhile, games like Gotham Knights are still set for 2022 while Breath of the Wild 2 was pushed back to a Spring 2023 release date. The full list of 2022 video game releases can be found be

In the base game of Elden Ring , players encounter the Demigod Miquella after defeating Mohg, Lord Of Blood at the very peak of his Mohgwyn Palace. Body concealed within a cocoon, a single scarred arm sticking out of the webbing, Miquella seems to be in middle of a metamorphosis, transforming from his youthful, golden-haired self into something new and strange. Currently, players can't interact with Miquella's cocoon, but many Elden Ring fans believe the game's upcoming DLC will be unlocked through an item that lets players wake Miquella inside his egg-like cocoon , or lets them dive into his memor

The year began with PC ports of Monster Hunter Rise and God of War . January was a sleepy month for games, but Pokémon Legends: Arceus proved to be a big hit on Nintendo Switch. The January 2022 video game releases w

If a player has been paying attention to Elden Ring 's game lore, they'll notice multiple clues indicating that becoming the Lord of Chaos is an apocalyptically bad idea. Melina, the companion well-intentioned players may seek to save, will leave the Tarnished in disgust if they embrace the Frenzied Flame. In the Lord Of Frenzied Flame ending cutscene, where the fire-possessed Tarnished starts to incinerate all the life within the Lands Between, Melina appears once more and declares her intent to save the world and destroy the Tarnished with the power of Destined De

May 2022 already has some exciting titles confirmed. Evil Dead: The Game is releasing after being delayed from February, but Forspoken - a new open-world IP from Square Enix - is now launching in October instead of at the end of the month. The list of May 2022 video game releases inclu

After defeating Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon , players will acquire the Great Rune of the Unborn. For a level 1, this rune is almost entirely useless and seeks no reward or advantage to the player. This is due to the rune allowing players to reset their Rune Level and swap around levels that they have obtai

To obtain the Great Rune of the Unborn, players will need to find and defeat Rennala Queen of the Full Moon. She is located at Raya Lucaria Academy in Liurnia of the Lakes . She can be a difficult boss, considering she is a Demigod Boss. However, the use of this Great Rune doesn't have anything for a Level 1 pla

Though Miquella never speaks or interacts with players in Elden Ring 's main game, it's possible to construct a hypothetical Miquella boss fight scenario simply through examining his in-game lore. According to certain item descriptions, Miquella was a master of Golden Order Fundamentalism, and would likely wield incantations such as Triple Rings Of Light or Radagon's Rings Of Light in a boss fight. Miquella, like his sister Malenia, was an Empyrean - a being capable of becoming a vessel for an Outer God's power - but also created Unalloyed Gold Needles capable or cutting people off from the influence of said Gods (like the one used in Elden Ring Nightreign Libra Weakness Ring to help Millicent fight the Scarlet Rot). If players did wind up fighting a Miquella possessed by an Outer God like the Formless Mother, they might be able to end the fight by stabbing Miquella with one of his own Unalloyed Gold Needles, freeing him from the influenced of the possessing deity. According to the description for the Bewitching Branch item, Miquella was also supernaturally charismatic and inspired fanatical loyalty in this subjects; this lore detail could be the basis for a boss fight where Miquella summons waves of faithful servants to defend hims

Players of Elden Ring only catch a glimpse of Godwyn The Golden, the firstborn son of Godfrey and Marika, long after his murder during the Night of the Black Knives. Far below the surface of the Lands Between at the heart of the Deeproot Depths, the once-beautiful body of Godwyn has bloated and metastasized, sprouting a mermaid-style fish tail and tree roots adorned with pale eyes. Before becoming the Prince of Death, though, Godwyn the Golden was a fearsome but gallant Demigod who defeated ancient dragons such as Fortissax, won their friendship, and established a sanctioned Dragon Cult in Leyndell. Fia working for Elden Ring 's Prince of Death is something of an extension of this cult. A boss fight against Godwyn in his prime (unlocked through time travel or diving into an ancient creature's memories) would be an epic duel on the level of the Nameless King fight from Dark Souls III , pitting _Elden Ring _ players against a foe capable of wielding golden lightning and matching the raw strength of drag
