Although Chinese video game adaptations are just over 30 years old, we feel like we have entered a new era of such films. What is certainly true is that their popularity has only grown, and as more and more of these games are brought to the big screen, the possibility of diversity in the films themselves and the possibilities of who is behind them are increasing. As the evidence comes the news today (through the deadline) That Alex Garland is in partnership with A24 and Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. To bring a "live ring" live on cinema in the near future. While Garland borrowed his talents in numerous films in various capacities - a big example is the upcoming "28 years later" he wrote for director Dani Boyle - he seems to not write the "Elden Ring" adaptation, but that it will also be his next film.

Unlike a number of recent video game adaptations - "Movie of Minecraft", "" "To dawn," " And the upcoming "Gears of War" -"Elden Ring" is a relatively recent video game, first released on the consoles in February 2022. Despite its freshness, the game has an impressive pedigree: it was co-regions and co-written by the Fromsoftware Guru Hidetetaka Miyazaki (of "Dark Souls". Georgeorje RR Martin. While retaining some elements of other games from Fromsoftware (such as a level of great difficulty), there is a game with an open world -wide game with a third person's perspective, allowing players to explore the land between their own pace.

While open -world video games have been widespread for many years, it has not yet turned tone into films for a fairly understandable reason: their whole complaint is adjusting the player's experience, as opposed to just one standard, a script plot. With a scientific legend like Garland on the ship (not to mention his regular studio, A24), it seems unlikely to get a tricky experience like "Warcraft" in 2016, nor as "Minecraft Film". It is quite possible that "Elden Ring" can push the entire suberter of the video game films forward.

Anyone who deals with the adaptation of the movie "Elden Ring" will have the task ahead of them, because the game, despite allegedly having a linear narrative and multiple possible endings, is not so clear in their story. The entire orum of the game world (and there are many) is buried under a widespread sense of fear and horror, with the player (belonging to the race of warriors known as the derogatory) that return to the land between the consequences of a devastating, mysterious conflict between godly essentials. In essence, there is a ton of mystery in the game itself, something that is less important in the scenario of play when there is a lot of to do, walking and monsters to kill, but can become an obstacle to an unbeaten story.

However, maybe where others could see obstacles, Garland sees an opportunity. After all, most of his films are works that put more emphasis on the experimental than the concrete. In fact, it is this approach that Garland has seen to be rejected as much as accepted; where the journey of "Destruction" (Film that is going to have a lot of video game structure) "Men" upset just as much, and "Civil War" Ironically divided them into the middle. Even This year's "Military Struggle", Assuming that some people before her release is a treat for the war in Iraq, it ended up as a much more intriguing exercise to show war as an experience with warts and everything "you are there".

Given this, it is quite possible that Garland does not bother to lower its "Elden Ring" adaptation with the Oodles of Lore a la "Warcraft", but instead allows the feeling of mystery and ambiguity of the game to remain intact. It will also explain the involvement of A24 in a video game movie, as such an approach would be closer to their aesthetic indie/arthaus than a direct fantasy movie. Only time will say, of course, but this news makes the movie "Elden Ring" far more intriguing than most other video game adaptations.
