In a series of announcements today, developer From Software revealed that its highly anticipated upcoming title Elden Ring has been delayed. However, fans of the developer’s titles won’t have to wait much longer for the game. Originally slated for a January 21 release, Elden Ring will now launch on February 25, 2022.
While the delay is sure to be a letdown for fans waiting for the title, which was voted the most anticipated game at last year’s Game Awards show, they won’t be left empty-handed. From Software also announced that the game will have a Closed Network Test in which registrants can “get a hands-on glimpse at what the full game will have to offer while assisting the development team in testing the game’s online servers ahead of its release date.”
The Closed Network Test will be available from November 12 to 15, although only during select periods of time throughout those days. Here’s the full schedule for Elden Ring‘s Closed Network Test.
Players can register for Elden Ring‘s closed network test on the game’s website. The game, which was partially written by Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin, keeps a majority of Dark Souls’ DNA intact while throwing players into an open world. It’s not clear what content players will be able to access during the game’s Closed Network Test.

This is a fully open world take, with townsfolk on routines who respond to what you do, even when you think no one’s watching. It’s still chasing that mix of heroics, petty crime, and dry British humor, only with modern action RPG muscle.

Nintendo first teased the Talking Flower during a Nintendo Direct showcase last September. The company has now shared more details about the product, and confirmed when it will officially go on sale. Based on the flowers in the Super Mario Bros. Wonder game, the Talking Flower is exactly what its name suggests: a potted flower that speaks around twice per hour, delivering lines like "Sometimes it's nice to space out" or "Bowser and his buds can't get us here, right?"
