2022 is already a big year for gaming, with titles like Pokémon Legends: Arceus and Elden Ring releasing in the early months. Other big-name games, like God of War Ragnarok and Breath of the Wild 2 originally had 2022 release windows, promising even more highly anticipated releases. Here is every video game release date in 2022 so

Spending earned Remembrances from **Elden Ring ** demigod bosses has both pros and cons to it. Thankfully, Elden Ring 's new game plus mode allows players to obtain the Remembrances again, but it's not an easy task for all to do. Understanding the benefits of spending or keeping them can completely change the tide of the game and how it's experienced at different mome

The titular Elden Ring is not a physical artifact, but a conglomeration of golden Runes both great and small, collectively forming a massive, reality-altering hyper-sigil. In the hands of Queen Marika the Eternal, though, the Elden Ring fulfilled the same purpose as Sauron's One Ring, a tool used to impose a new order upon the Lands Between. In the backstory of Elden Ring , Queen Marika and her consort Lord Godfrey used the Elden Ring's power to raise a host of fanatical champions who forge a massive empire through conquest - defeating the lightning-wielding Ancient Dragons of Farum Azula, exterminating the Fire Giants, and forging an armistice with the Carian Sorcerers of the west. At the height of the Golden Order, the loyal subjects of Marika and her consorts were blessed with a golden luster and benefited greatly from the sacred healing magics and life-giving sap provided by the sky-spanning Erdtree and its saplings. The Erdtree and the Elden Ring within it even altered the cycling of transmigration within the Lands Between, drawing dead souls in through its roots to be recorded and eventually reincarnated. In terms of potential alone, the Elden Ring is an order-establishing tool that would, despite it emulating Lord of the Rings , put the One Ring and its power to sh

Many of the above video games will get concrete release dates in 2022 as the year continues. However, a few may be subject to delays (like the Suicide Squad game is reportedly delayed). Regardless, 2022 video game releases have already proven to be a huge year for gaming. And with more releases later in the year, it should only keep getting bet

Hidetaka Miyazaki, FromSoftware president and director of Elden Ring , and George R.R. Martin, the fantasy author hired to create the game's mythical foundation, were likely both aware comparisons would be drawn between Elden Ring and its inspiration, LOTR , based on their titles alone. Rather than being daunted, however, these two creative luminaries were likely inspired to create a brand new fantasy setting full of dark, strange, and decidedly non-Tolkien-esque world-building details. The shattered Elden Ring , for instance, is not a physical artifact of power, but an ethereal magical c0de that imposes a set of natural laws over reality. The various non-human species populating the Lands Between – chimeric Demi-Humans and Misbegotten, Omens, Onyx Lords, and Albinaurics – are wildly different from the elves, dwarves, and hobbits populating Tolkien's Middle-earth. In place of a story about the forces of good fighting against once-noble powers corrupted by their pride and hubris (a very Christian tale inspired by Tolkien's devout Catholic beliefs), Elden Ring's often regretful story is a Darwinian battle of ideals between different factions, visionaries, and cosmic gods who want to change the world to fit their principles. And yet, though they may differ in big ways, Elden Ring and The Lords of the Rings are epics akin to each other in small, yet meaningful w

December has a number of games previously announced, including sequels like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 and Homeworld 3 . More release dates will be announced as the year goes on. The list of December 2022 video game releases incl

The Elden Beast is one of the best final bosses FromSoftware has ever created. Soulsborne final bosses have a reputation for being disappointing due to not being as tough as earlier fights. The Elden Beast breaks that trend, being a massive beast with great melee and ranged options. What makes it even harder is that it comes right after Rada

Reduvia is an early option for weapons and is remarkably powerful throughout the game. For players who are interested in a quick-hit playstyle that utilizes daggers, the Reduvia is the weapon of choice. Reduvia is found by beating Bloody Finger Nerijus in Limgrave's Murkwater Cataco

Of course, the wolves aren't known for being Tank summons, and Some-Scheme838 points this out as their weakness, recommending that players should go with "a tankier summon" than wolves, as using wolves was the main focus of the original poster's strategy. An example would be Mimic T

Unfortunately, once Remembrances are turned into runes, they're gone until a New Game Plus is started, in which players will have to defeat the same bosses once again to earn them - only the bosses get stronger with each restart. The good news is that the new game plus allows players to keep the weapons and levels they already earned from previous playthroughs, so it shouldn't be too difficult for an experienced Tarnished to obtain the Remembrance again; however, Elden Ring can take long to beat and NG+1000 Challenge might make the process for some too strenuous. One unique aspect to earning the same Remembrance twice is that powerful weapons can be dual-wielded to create an even stronger combination of attacks, making PvE and PvP more interesting. If players are only sticking to a single playthrough, though, turning the Remembrances into runes won't be worth the con of losing the special rewards from tough bosses, even if using Walking Mausoleums to duplicate them to help mitigate the l
