george rr martin: Elden Ring developer reveals two new game classes – Times of India

Japanese video game company FromSoftware’s Elden Ring is one of the highly anticipated fantasy role playing games of this year. Scheduled to launch on February 25, the game has already gone gold. As the launch day nears by, FromSoftware has unveiled two new Elden Ring classes, namely, the Vagabond and the Hero. While the Vagabond is described as “a knight exiled from their homeland to wander” which has a “solid, armor-clad origin”, the Hero is “a stalwart hero, at home with a battleaxe, descended from a badlands chieftain.” The Japanese game developer announced this via the Elden Ring Twitter account.

With the addition of these two, Elden Ring now has a total of seven classes, the other five being the Bloody Wolf, Champion, Prophet, Enchanted Knight, and Warrior. Players can start with anyone of these when building their game character. One thing to note here is that the developers may decide to scrap one or more classes which were made available during the Elden Ring Network Test and replace them with others in the full version of the game.
As per an IGN report, FromSoftware’s Yasuhiro Kitao said that the master version of the game has already been submitted and currently the developers are working on the day one patch, “to make sure everything in the game is just so.” With the final version of the game, the major parts of the game like the levelling system and the legacy dungeon areas of the game are the same, but “”myriad small things have changed,” when comparing it to the Network Test version like item flavor text being fixed and enemy placement being tweaked, added the report.
