As we reported last week, Elden Ring just surpassed the 20 million copies sold milestone. The soulslike role playing game was directed by Dark Souls creator Hidetaka Miyazaki, with fantasy author George R.R. Martin providing the worldbuilding and lore. Elden Ring garnered the lion’s share of accolades in 2022, winning various “Game of the Year” honors including at The Game Awards 2022.
