During Elden Ring's 2021 network tests, players were able to choose from 5 playable classes. These classes were Warrior, Enchanted Knight, Prophet, Champion, and Bloody Wolf. While these are likely not all of the classes that will be playable at launch, it gives a good look at the gameplay styles that players can choose from in their adventure.
