An Elden Ring board game campaign is coming ‘soon’ to Kickstarter
An Elden Ring board game is on the way.
Steamforged Games – the team behind tabletop games Horizon Zero Dawn, Resident Evil and Dark Souls – will “soon” launch a Kickstarter campaign to bring the officially sanctioned board game adaptation to fruition.
“Like the video game, the board game Elden Ring will immerse players in the abandoned Lands Between,” explains a press release from the company. “In a vast, sprawling world of decaying grandeur that unfolds as they explore, 1-4 ‘tarnished’ players will embark on a vast and varied adventure, visiting iconic locations and encountering familiar enemies and characters. .”
The team creating the tabletop game says it will feature “intelligent dice-free combat” that requires strategy in every encounter, “whether it’s a lowly Godrick soldier or the graft king himself.”
“Elden Ring is a stunning, genre-defining video game, and we’re honored and privileged to bring it to your tables. To say our team is passionate about the game would be an understatement,” said Mat Hart, Co-Founder and CCO at Steamforged Games.
“Our mission is always to deliver authentic tabletop adaptations that capture the essence of what fans know and love about IP. Fans should expect a dark, richly realized world of mystery and peril, with satisfying combat and rewarding exploration. Get ready to waste hours on this game and enjoy it.
Publisher Bandai Namco recently made the entire Elden Ring soundtrack officially available to listen to on a wide range of music streaming services.
The new digital soundtrack contains a total of 67 tracks, variously composed by Tsukasa Saitoh, Shoi Miyazawa, Yuka Kitamura, Yoshimi Kudo and Tai Tomisawa – many of whom are longtime From Software collaborators, having worked on projects like The Dark Souls Series, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Bloodborne.
