Recently, From Software President Hidetaka Miyazaki explained in an interview about the reason why the equipment ring previously used in the Dark Souls series was abandoned in the new work "Eldon's Ring of Law".
"There are many reasons to abandon this setting," he said. First, we've used rings as equipable items several times in previous games — especially Dark Souls. This time, however, the amulet allowed us to deal with these ideas in different ways, and the design of the equipment system became more diverse. The second reason is obvious, rings do exist in the game as physical "rings," but more as endemic items involved in the story and unique character events. So we wanted them to have a special place in the world of Eldon's Ring of Law, and a difference in the design concepts associated with amulets. ”
It is reported that "Eldon's Ring of Law" will be released on February 25, 2022.
