Elden Ring Tops 12 million in Digital Sales and Shipments
Elden Ringhas had a pretty successful launch last month, with numbers now topping 12 million in digital sales and shipments. Publisher Bandai Namco and developer FromSoftware have reported that theAction-RPGthat was released for Playstation, Xbox and PC last month is doing rather well. One million copies were sold in Japan alone according to the latest press release.
The developer has even teased that they hope to be “expanding beyond the realm of games” for the Elden Ring IP according to President & CEO of Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc., Yasuo Miyakawa. What exactly that means is currently unknown, but this could mean further stories to be told, based on the Lands Between in a different type of medium, with the intent “to keep developing Elden Ring so that it reaches various fields, not only games”. Elden Ring graphic novels, books, series, or other kinds of media could be really interesting, especially to dive into further lore and stories behind theBossesor certain enemies. As Elden Ring doesn’t spell it out for you when it comes to its secrets, there could be further tales spanning from this new universe, even more of how “Pot Boy"Alexanderended up here.
