1 Hour of Elden Ring Closed Network Test Gameplay

Here’s one hour of gameplay taken from the recent Elden Ring Closed Network Test conducted on the PlayStation 5. This includes all the interactions, several areas explored, some boss fights, and yes, some deaths. Hey, it happens to everyone.

Elden Ring is Fromsoftware’s upcoming title and looks to be their biggest and best game to date.  Ever since this joint project between From Software and George R. R. Martin (A Song of Ice and Fire, Game of Thrones) and has been on the minds of the entire Soulsborne community. We’ve looked at every bit of info we could find on the game, and maybe some of us even made up some stuff about the game. Needless to say, the hype is real, and I can’t wait to play the full game when it gets released.

Elden Ring releases on February 25, 2022, for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Are you looking to play Elden Ring when it releases? If so, what platform will you be playing on? Let us know in the comments.
