Elden Ring March Reveal May Be Delayed Due to Recent Trailer Leak - Report

Traditionally, a leak often causes an official announcement or reveal to be pushed up, but instead, it seems that the recent Elden Ring reveal trailer finding its way online via blurry off-screen footage has reportedly put the brakes on a March announcement that Bandai Namco had previously planned.

That's according to industry insider Jeff Grubb (via Nibellion on Twitter), who states that the rumoured March reveal is unlikely to happen now, potentially due to the recent leak. In response, Bandai Namco is now looking to crack down “hard” on the origin of said leak, which it is apparently in the process of investigating, according to Grubb.

Since its announcement back in June 2019, we've barely seen hide or hair of Elden Ring, which explains the fan fervour for new information on the collaborative FromSoftware and George R.R. Martin (author of Game of Thrones series A Song of Ice and Fire) project. Hopefully, we'll be getting some actual official details and a new trailer for Elden Ring sooner rather than later.

  • Plot twist:

    The developers released the potato-filmed "leak" themselves to give themselves an excuse, nonsensical as it is, to delay their reveal ... because they are behind schedule and don't have shit.

    Sounds like marketing 101 now days! You may be on to something!
  • @1 Given that Martin is involved I would say your theory has merit. Book 6 when? I’m kidding. I lost interest years ago
  • Lol, any excuse to delay. Just say that you need more time ffs. CD Projekt Red screwed that one up.
  • @ WickedSeraph ... So true!

    If "Winds of Winter" ever comes out, I'm going to have to read the whole series again to remember all the details and characters.

    G.R.R. Martin is insufferable at this point. His ego is beyond ridiculous now, and his work ethic died the second he became a made man via the HBO deal. He was actually a pretty cool guy when all his income came from his books and board / card games.

    Have you read the Witcher series? I loved ASOIAF, but though different and more challenging reads, I prefer Sapowski, even though he is an insufferable asshole now too. My favorite of the books was "A Season of Storms," I think. The "Ciri" cycle is very good, but Geralt is honestly kind of a supporting actor. "A Season of Storms" is all about Geralt and development of his character, and has the most about actual Witcher work.
