In a reply to his own tweet, From Software acknowledged that "Elden Ring" is still a video game in the works and something to "look forward to."

In the meantime, we can at least enjoy the dark fantasy in the Elden Ring subreddit. It's been more than a year since FromSoft approved this game, but the studio skipped every digital conference this year to make this damn game. So some ardent FromSoft fans are taking on the illogical and grueling task as a way to pass the time and at least keep hope alive that the spirit of Dark Souls will be carried on somewhere other than console gaming."
