Here are the launch times for the Elden Ring network test
Elden Ring is the next big action role-playing game from developer FromSoftware and publisher Bandai Namco. Ahead of the game’s launch, some players are going to get their hands on it, with some dedicated Elden Ring network test sessions. Right now, it’s unclear whether this is merely the first found of playtesting or whether this is the only chance anyone will have to try the game ahead of launch.
FromSoftware’s long history of hardcore titles means it’s quite possible Elden Ring will be one of the best Xbox RPGs available when it launches. If you want to learn more about what’s in store with a first hands-on trial of the game, we’ve got you covered.

What does this Elden Ring network test include?

A huge feature of Elden Ring is how it’s the first true open world game that FromSoftware has done, so it’s possible this network test could provide a larger look at the game than tests for past titles.
