FromSoftware under the lead of Hidetaka Miyazaki has collaborated with George R.R. Martin for the studio's largest game to date. Elden Ring is an epic fantasy action-RPG due to release in early 2020. In the meantime the first CGI trailer should put you in the new world crafted by the Japanese developer.
Update: Added some images

Trailer was very vague. Hopefully we get some good exposition for the story (im hoping its something rich you can get into, especially if GRRM is involved), and what type of gameplay to expect.

Here's an official interview with 4 pages of info directly from Hidetaka Miyazaki himself, through the Xbox Wire website:

https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2019/06/09/hidetaka-mi...

For a TL;DR version, PC Gamer's article goes through the most relevant info.

PC Gamer - Elden Ring will be more Dark Souls than Sekiro and way bigger than both - Though the combat will remain brutal and fast-paced, Elden Ring will be an even bigger and more complex RPG than Dark Souls (excerpts from the article):

Elden Ring won't follow in the footsteps of Sekiro, says its creator Hidetaka Miyazaki, but instead double-down on Dark Souls' RPG design to create From Software's "biggest title yet, in terms of sheer volume."

"Unlike Sekiro, which has a heavy focus on action, Elden Ring puts more focus on RPG elements," Miyazaki said. "Of course, we are not shying away from the fun of responsive melee-based combat, and these elements will be present as well."

Basically, Dark Souls 4, without being Dark Souls 4, but with a more open world game like Skyrim.

For all that the teaser conveyed, it might as well have been a tech demo.

That was great interview. Much like Omni on Era was hinting, it's going to be evolution of what made From Software's games special with even more RPG elements, some surprises we don't know yet and new approach to their invasion system.

Also it sounds like GRRM has worked a lot more on the game than many of us thought haha.

Seth I thought character models, lip syncing etc are nice step up as well. [url] (22 Hours ago)
KORNdog not to say it looks bad, it doesn't. it just doesn't look as nice as REmake 2 to me. (1 Day ago)
KORNdog @Seth: the enviroments look a lot more empty. i don't know if it's because of the emphasis on racoon streets or what. but it just doesn't look as polished. lip syncing and facial capture looks off too (1 Day ago)
MrWhite @Seth: Yeah, looks on par to me. Probably even better if I'm honest. (1 Day ago)
Seth what i find a bit disappointing is Resistance MP (legit look terrible) replacing Mercenaries mode. (1 Day ago)
Seth looks as good as RE2 in motion. What is rushed about? I could bet RE3 is going to be one of the most polished AAA games this year. (1 Day ago)
nostradamus it looks really good... enough. production/budget wise. it was even more cheap on the first screens, but its quite nice in motion, because they nailed the Resi3:Nemesis look/art perfectly. (1 Day ago)
