In the realm known as The Lands Between, one must act mercilessly to endure and thrive, while the once-untouchable Golden Order’s flawlessness is now exposed, thanks to the fragmentation of the Elden Ring.

Last year, Shift Up made a significant breakthrough with their initial console launch of Stellar Blade, a game previously exclusive to PlayStation.

On the same day, both the PC and PS5 versions of the game’s Complete Edition will also hit the shelves.
