FromSoftware · 2022 · Action RPG
Elden Ring is FromSoftware’s open-world action RPG, built on an updated version of the engine behind the Dark Souls series.
It’s moderately demanding rather than extreme, but its frame-pacing behavior means a sufficiently powerful, stable CPU matters as much as raw GPU power for a smooth experience.
