In other news, new gameplay footage for Elden Ring has gone online as of recently. The new footage showcases the Margit's Shackel item, which feels very similar to Bloodborne's Gascoigne Music Box, some never seen before armor sets, a Skeletal Bandit spirit, and more.
The footage has been surfacing as of late thanks to the Closed Network Test build becoming playable again via hacking. This news relates to the recent problematic issue that's been found to happen across the entire Dark Souls series. Thanks to an exploit, players can execute malicious code on PCs through the game's multiplayer features. The series' online features were recently shut down by FromSoftware in response to this potentially catastrophic event.
