About

Elden Ring is a 2022 action RPG from FromSoftware that redefined the studio's challenging gameplay formula with a massive open world called the Lands Between. Directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki and featuring world-building by George R. R. Martin, the game tasks players with exploring vast landscapes and battling demanding enemies as the customizable Tarnished. It's a landmark title that earned a 93/100 rating and influenced countless games since its release.

The game is reasonably accessible from a hardware perspective, running on entry-level GPUs with a minimum benchmark score around 7478. You'll need at least 12 GB of RAM and a CPU scoring approximately 7419 to meet minimum requirements, though these specs deliver only baseline performance at lower graphics settings. For smooth FPS at higher resolutions and detail levels, mid-range GPUs offer better performance headroom, making Elden Ring scalable across various PC configurations.

If you enjoy challenging action RPGs with compelling world-building and don't mind difficulty spikes, Elden Ring is absolutely worth playing. Its exceptional critical reception and innovative open-world design make it one of the generation's standout titles.

Performance profile

Released in February 2022, Elden Ring targets RTX 20/30-series and RX 6000-era hardware. A current mid-range GPU (RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT) is the sweet spot for 1440p Ultra; 4K needs a high-end card.

RPGs like Elden Ring stress VRAM during long sessions — texture streaming, mods and open-world traversal inflate memory use over time. 8 GB VRAM is a practical floor; 12 GB+ is worth the headroom at 1440p and above.

Mid-range territory. An RTX 3060 or RX 6700 XT delivers 60 FPS at 1080p High in Elden Ring. For 1440p Ultra you'll want an RTX 4060 Ti / RX 7700 XT; 4K Ultra needs an RTX 4070 Ti or faster.

Storyline

Elden Ring takes place in the Lands Between, a fictional realm over which several demigods rule. It was previously ruled over by the immortal Queen Marika, who acted as keeper of the Elden Ring, a powerful force that manifested itself as the physical concept of order. When Marika shattered the Elden Ring and disappeared, her demigod children began fighting over pieces of the Ring in an event called The Shattering. Each demigod has a shard of the Ring called a Great Rune, which corrupts them with power. In the game, the player character is a Tarnished, one of a group of exiles from the Lands Between who are summoned back after the Shattering. The player must traverse the realm to repair the Elden Ring and become the Elden Lord.
