Elden Ring PvP looks like it will be getting an enhanced focus soon, as leake🔯rs and dataminers have found assets relating to competitive matches betweeജn players that could be coming in future DLC. 

Noted 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:FromSoftware leaker and modder has been digging into the latest 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Elden Ring v1.07 pat🦹ch for any hints towards future content, and hidden in the update are references to competitive gameplay. Most notable, several text banners were found for the phrases “Begin Match&rdqu𝔍o;, “You Win”, “Draw”, and “You Lose”.  

This find suggests that competitive 1v1 matches will be added soon. While this could come as an update, it seems a substantial enough addition that this would be part of the long-speculated 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Elden Ring DLC

Recently, the PvP portion of the game has been getting some love in the Lands Between. As part of the aforementioned v1.07 update, FromSoftware committed to PvP in Elden Ring by announcing⛄ it would be bal𒆙ancing weapons in PvP and PvE separately. This has long been an ask by the broader community who have wanted weapons that have dominated the PvP meta nerfed without destroying their usability when facing bosses in the broader world. 

Hints of this competitive restructure have been around since Elden Ring’s launch, as a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:secret Colosseum was found back in March. However, it's remained unused, with specဣulation that it'll be for PvP. The clues are only getting stronger, pointing to a significantly expanded competitive option past just invading other player games. 

Elden Ring is leading nominations at the Golden Joystick Awards 2022, and voting is still open.
