Professional reviews from gaming critics
From Software's expansion for Elden Ring offers an entire new game's worth of content, all of which is exceptionally executed.
We are halfway through 2022, with so many great gaming releases, and even more games to come, but if there’s one thing that’s pretty much unanimous among the gaming populace, is that we’ve had our game of the year decided for us since late February. For as much as Neon White, Total War: Warhammer III, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge, and Rogue Legacy 2 ended up being bangers, we all know Elden Ring is the best game to have released in 2022.

Elden Ring is a fantastic example of what the Steam Deck is capable of.
While it feels like the impact of Breath of the Wild is waning as the open world genre starts to stagnate again, Elden Ring stands out as not only an achievement in FromSoftware’s hall of fame, but also as an open-world RPG. Elden Ring is without a doubt, FromSoft’s most ambitious undertaking yet, and like Dark Souls before it, I believe it will leave a permanent mark on both the open-world genre and the games industry in general.

Elden Ring offers rewarding gameplay, a cohesive setting and gripping lore. Some of the open-world systems feel clunkier than they should, though.
“While technical frustrations hold back its full potential, Elden Ring astonishes with fantastic open-world design and consistently rewarding exploration.”
It won’t be winning over any new players. If you weren’t a fan of Elden Ring initially then you won’t like this, but given the millions of people who have already fallen in love with the FromSoftware title, I don’t suspect there will be many customers unhappy with Shadow of the Erdtree.
Elden Ring will go down as FromSoftware’s most successful entry and its most played to completion as well. While there is no direct easy mode, the sheer flexibility of its open world, and how you engage with it, can certainly make the game more accessible. While Elden Ring is full of challenge and i
