Elden Ringis one of the most highly-anticipated games of 2022. From Software is one of the most beloved developers in the industry today, and it would be fair to expectElden Ringto get a positive receptionfrom both critics and players upon its launch.
From Software has shared details on the various classes ofElden Ringin the lead-up to its release. Most recently, the developer had revealedthe Prophet and Wretch classes forElden Ring. The Prophet class seems to revolve around both offensive and defensive magic while Wretch is described as poor and purposeless. Players choosing Wretch will probably not get any initial bonuses or meaningful equipment as it looks to be the hardest class in the game. Now, From Software has released a new trailer that gives an overview ofElden Ring.

Additionally,Elden Ringlets players use a wide variety of skills and equipment, allowing them to fully customize their builds.
