I hope the logo is the box art too because it reminds me of a mid 90s PC game cover... like can you not just imagine that thing printed on a giant-ass box sitting on the shelves of CompUSA?

With all these leaks I think E3 needs Roca Pads

George is okay, but I'm in because more Miyazaki.

This man speaks the truth.

If people already got impressions that go way deep, i'd hope for something more than CG for the reveal.

The same could be said about Miyazaki. He just released a game where he claims directorial authorship. Exactly how much input is this guy having in these games?

He gives the general direction of the game and supervises production,but he's not anymore in day to day development. They credit him as a director nonetheless,because fans worship him as a god and if his name is not there,they become angry

if that was the case,they would just name it Elder Ring,like Elder Sign.

This is either the norse meaning of Fire Ring or Elden is a newly created word on this new universe,maybe a race or something.
It is already a word though. It is an archaic verb meaning "to Age". They would also possibly want to avoid the word "elder" due to its association with other game series.

Both meanings are equally possible at this point, and it might even be a newly created world based on "Eldritch".

Weren't there rumors about From switching to Unreal Engine for future titles? Did they ever confirm that? Wondering if this might be their first game on it.

Can't wait to see more.

There should be a fair amount of crossover between their fanbases, I think. If you appreciate deep, expertly crafted worlds, rich in history and lore, both have work that's absolutely essential.

Funny, though, this will be Miyazaki's fifth game since the fifth ASOIAF book dropped in 2011. Hopefully he rubs off on George a little.

"If you thought this E3 would have a Bloodborne 2 trailer, you haven't been paying attention."

Sigh.

Awesome to see this confirmed, but imagine the internet-breaking madness that would have resulted if none of this had leaked in advance...

When the idea of GRRM and From was first floated, it seemed completely implausible. An out of nowhere announcement would have been shocking, but watching that rumour go from impossible to real had it's own charm.

Now that we've established dreams can come true, can someone please get Hideaki Itsuno & Joe Abercrombie in a room together?

PS4, huh? I kind of figured the next big FromSoft title was going to be next-gen.

That said, hard to get hyped about this without knowing anything about it. Get back to me when Soulsborne-like gameplay and character customization are confirmed.

I'm so hyped by this that I can't properly process it. Two best fantasy minds of the last 25 years collabing. Jeez louise.

by the swedish translation fire ring, the image looks like fire rings
and its a variation of a traditional celtic knot just insert another circle in the middle

i think its more likely to be norse, sure could not be, but there's some indicatives though.
