Elden Ring has reached a significant sales milestone, selling 30 million copies just over three years post-release. FromSoftware is commemorating this achievement just a month ahead of the forthcoming release of Elden Ring Nightreign.
“Dearest Tarnished, we are profoundly thankful for your lasting devotion. May your path be forever guided by the Grace of Gold.”
Translation: Dearest Tarnished, we sincerely appreciate your unwavering loyalty. We wish for your journey to always be illuminated by the Grace of Gold.
Elden Ring’s previous record also included over 20 million sales within its first year, and its DLC, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, saw over five million copies sold shortly after launch.
Sales tend to surge around the release of a new title in the series, and Nightreign promises a different gaming experience, transforming into a multiplayer roguelike that stands apart from the traditional RPG format.
Despite some skepticism regarding the new direction, early impressions are mixed, with players considering the gameplay a necessary adaptation to enjoy this latest installment. Elden Ring was initially a revelation, and it remains to be seen if Nightreign can capture that excitement.
