There are three giant, inaccessible arenas players can travel to in Elden Ring 's open world - one in Limgrave, one in Caelid, and one in Leyndell, the Royal Capital. Each of these arenas bears a close resemblance to the Colosseum of Ancient Rome and are stylistically associated with gladiator-type enemies who wear serpentine adornments. Players can't access the interior of these arenas in the base Elden Ring game, but may be able to uses these arenas as PVP hubs when the next Elden Ring DLC comes out. A player versus player boss battle like the Old Monk fight from Demon's Souls would be particularly appropriate in such an arena setting, potentially invoking the bombastic spectacle of Roman gladiator matches, a sentiment already represented in Elden Ring 's historically inspired armor sets , or letting players fight each other on horseback in the style of knightly jou

Dark Souls , FromSoftware's best-known game series, is out of the question for the next release. This should come as no surprise either because Hidetaka Miyazaki already stated in 2017 that Dark Souls 3 wrapped up the trilogy, and, at least for the near future, the series was over. Also, observing what the studio has done in the past, it hasn't typically picked back up on series that've reached the climax; usually there is a period of waiting before a continuation is confirmed. However, this doesn't necessarily mean there won't ever be another Dark Souls game, as there's still a lot of potential for story development. Even so, it's unlikely it would be the next release, or even that it would be coming anytime soon. FromSoftware could use this waiting period to continue remastering older Dark Souls games, just as in 2018, or the studio could continue working on new content while focusing on bringing new life to older proje

While Kalé's role in Elden Ring is minimal, a lengthy cut questline would have given the dedicated capitalist a much greater impact on the narrative. According to data miners, the storyline would have seen Kalé embark on a journey to locate the Great Caravan that his people once called home. The merchant would leave the Church of Elleh to travel all across the Lands Between, with his search eventually landing him in the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds beneath Leyndell where the Three Fingers reside. While Melina typically advises the Tarnished protagonist to resist joining the Three Fingers and possessing the Frenzied Flame, Kalé's cut questline would have put an entirely new perspective on this scena

In the many Soulsborne games, melee builds are considered the best way to play. In these games that value quick reactions and knowledge of the enemy's abilities, being up close is high risk and high reward thanks to the incredible damage available to melee players. This is especially true in Elden Ri

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

Kalé's final discovery at the end of his questline, and the being ultimate responsible for the destruction of the Great Caravan, is the Three Fingers. Throughout the early hours of Elden Ring players become acquainted with the Two Fingers, a strange being that resides in the Roundtable Hold and controls the Golden Order. While players are expected to remain loyal to the Two Fingers, discovering and siding with the Three Fingers unlocks an alternate ending to the game where players can resist sacrificing Melina to burn open the Erdtree. The Three Fingers instead give players control of the Frenzied Flame, which is also powerful enough to set the Erdtree alight and open its inner passa

With the information currently available in the mainstream, it's difficult to pinpoint an exact title or sequel that might follow Elden Ring . However, there are certain releases that can, given the information provided by Miyazaki and other leaks, be ruled out for the next upcoming FromSoftware launch. Recently, rumors have begun surfacing from alleged insiders, and if they're accurate, they provide a reasonable case for a classic franchise to follow the company's hit Elden Ri

Relying on the alleged ResetEra leaks, the consumer survey screenshots highlighted ground-breaking details about the supposed Armored Core game in development. In the past, FromSoftware's Armored Core games weren't Soulslike because it was an entirely separate franchise that predated Dark Souls , which means a new one would give players a much-needed break from the more recent titles such as Sekiro and Elden Ring Nightreign Ring . Although Armored Core hasn't traditionally been Soulslike in nature, it could even take inspiration from FromSoftware's later releases, possibly not venturing too far from the studio's formula of painstakingly difficult bosses and enemies as evidenced by the survey's supposed text, " challenging battles with tough enemies ." In addition to the short- and long-range combat, information about the name of the world and the main story conflict is provided. Until further confirmation, however, these claims should be taken lightly. Currently, Red Liquorice's post is the best lead to predict what's coming next after Elden Ri
