Unfortunately, it seems that further announcements aboutElden Ringmay not be coming soon. The former Game Informer senior editor, Imran Khan, announced that fans of From Software would have “a lot of reasons to be happy in the next two years.” A fellow Twitter user responded to the given time frame and Khan offered more clarity although it may not please fans. The reporter replied, “Things that people think are hitting 2020 might not hit 2020 or even be shown in 2020.” It is unclear what title this is specifically referring to, but given that theBloodbornePC portwill likely be significantly less work than a new IP, many fans believe that they will have to wait a little while longer for more information about the upcomingElden Ring.

FromSoftware has an incredible track record of releasing quality games and for some, and that will likely be enough to sustain interest in a title.
