The Elden Ring release date is tantalisingly close. With FromSoftware’s highly anticipated new RPG due to drop in just a few days, it’s time to start thinking about when exactly you’ll be able to get stuck in. The good news is the studio has now unveiled the Elden Ring release times across different timezones and platforms.
So, let’s get into it.
