You'll have to wait an extra month to uncover Elden Ring's mysteries.

 From Software

Elden Ring has been delayed to Feb. 25, 2022, the game's official Twitter account said Monday. The action role-playing game was previously scheduled to come out for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S and PC in January.

Developer From Software noted that the delay came after "the depth & strategic freedom of the game exceeded initial expectations."

The company also revealed that a " closed network test" -- a limited-time demo -- will run from Nov. 12 to 14. You'll have to sign up by Nov. 1 to try it out.
