Elden Ring adaptation teased 2rcn

In a blog post published June 29, the author hinted at an Elden Ring adaptation by enthusiastically feigning ignorance about a possible project. “Oh, and about those rumors you may have heard about a feature film or television series based on ELDEN RING… I have nothing to say,” Martin said. “Not a word, nope, not a thing, I know nothing, you never heard a peep from me, mum mum mum. What rumor?” he added.

Martin's coy suggestions follow ission from FromSoftware president and Elden Ring director Hidetaka Miyazaki that he wouldn't mind seeing the game adapted to a different medium. In an Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, Miyazaki had said: “I don't see any reason to deny another interpretation or adaptation of Elden Ring, a movie for example.

“But I don't think myself, or FromSoftware, have the knowledge or ability to produce something in a different medium. So that's where a very strong partner would come into play. We'd have to build a lot of trust and agreement on whatever it is we're trying to achieve, but there's interest, for sure,” he had added.

In his blog, he also thanked the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers Association for presenting its Nebula Award for Game Writing to Elden Ring last year. “I did the worldbuilding for that project; Hidetaka Miyazaka [sic] and his team did all the rest. We were both honored with trophies,” the writer said in his blog post.
