Alex Garland most recently served as writer and director on ‘Warfare’ and will also write the upcoming feature, besides directing it.

The live-action film adaptation of the popular game will be based on a mythological story written by author George R. R. Martin, best known for ‘Game of Thrones’ and its spinoff series.

Directed by FromSoftware’s Hidetaka Miyazaki, Elden Ring is a dark fantasy role-playing game set in an expansive, immersive world filled with dragons, mythical beasts, towering castles, and treacherous dungeons.

The story unfolds in a legendary land called the Lands Between, where the shattering of the powerful Elden Ring has thrown the realm into conflict and disorder. Players take on the role of a hero destined to restore the Elden Ring and bring order to the chaos.

The game proved to be a hit upon its release in 2022 and won several accolades at the 2022 Game Awards.

The title won the game of the year award, best game direction and best role-playing game.

Following the success of the original title, the makers developed a spinoff, Elden Ring Nightreign, which is set for release on May 30.

In the upcoming release, players join forces to tackle a range of formidable challenges.

The developer has also announced its plans to release Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition, a comprehensive version of the game, on the Nintendo Switch 2 later this year.

The edition will include the 2024 DLC expansion Shadow of the Erdtree, along with four additional armour sets and a new feature for customising character appearances.
