On what date was FromSoftware’s video game Elden Ring first released worldwide?

Elden Ring was first released worldwide on February 25, 2022.

FromSoftware developed Elden Ring, while Bandai Namco Entertainment published it internationally. The game launched for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Its release followed several years of anticipation after its announcement at E3 2019.

The date is sometimes confused with the release of Shadow of the Erdtree, Elden Ring’s major expansion, which arrived in 2024. Elden Ring also received several post-launch patches and updates, but those did not change its original release date.

The game became one of FromSoftware’s most commercially successful titles and introduced the studio’s Soulslike design to a much larger open-world format.
