The sequel to Elden Ring already has a major story problem that could be FromSoftware’s most daunting narrative challenge to date. The studio president and creative director, Hidetaka Miyazaki, seemingly confirmed that a sequel to Elden Ring was in development in a snippet from the game’s guidebook. This news is somewhat expected. Elden Ring is a massively popular game and the studio's most successful title yet. This creates a new issue that FromSoftware has avoided in the past. However, Elden Ring 2 will be challenged to create a new approach to avoid falling back on the tropes used in previous titles.
