Popular FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki has addressed the PlayStation Partner Awards about the future of the Elden Ring brand.
The relentlessly punishing director of both Elden Ring and it’s DLC attended to receive an award for Shadow of the Erdtree, Elden Ring’s hefty expansion released earlier this year.
In a statement reported by IGN Japan, Miyazaki confirmed that the From team is not currently considering developing Elden Ring 2.
That being said, he also confirmed that multiple teams at FromSoftware are working on projects, some of which he’s working on directly.
But while Elden Ring 2 isn’t in FromSoftware’s immediate future, Miyazaki did not rule out a return to the Lands Between, saying “the IP could develop in some form in the future”.
It remains to be seen whether that manifests as another game, a film or TV adaptation, or something else entirely.
Elden Ring and Shadow of the Erdtree are, without a doubt, the most successful projects to come out of FromSoftware.
Both games have received Game of the Year nods in their respective The Game Award nominations, though the latter has proven to be controversial.
