Elden Ring developed by FromSoftware, the studio behind the Dark Souls Franchise and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, is an action-RPG set in the world of the Lands Between. Players can team up in online co-op by summoning friends to battle or being summoned to another player's world. Elden Ring also features a robust online competitive mode that allows players to invade other players' worlds and even request the help of an ally for PvP battles.

Elden Ring will also have multiplayer elements that will affect the world around the player based on the actions of other online players. Although players on different platforms will not be able to play together, the multiplayer features will give players the chance to play with others and see the world around them change.
