Elden Ring Hackers Have Found Fia's Underwear In The Game's Code

Hackers have found deathbed companion Fia's underwear in Elden Ring's code. The action role-playing video game has been out for less than a month, yet fans are already discovering hidden features of the expansive game. Developer FromSoftware is known for hiding lore and important details in the descriptions for certain items in their games. Newer players may not be as familiar with this aspect of FromSoftware's games and may in fact miss some of the essential items in Elden Ring. Now it seems that some hackers have found a more puzzling item in the game's code.

The black-garment adorning NPC Fia can be found in the Roundtable Hold beside a bed, offering the player a blessing in the form of an embrace. Hugging Fia will give the player Baldachin's Blessing, a consumable item that is only replenished in the deathbed companion's embrace. This will boost the player's poise, but will also deplete some of the player's valuable FP. Each time the player returns to the Roundtable Hold, Fia will be there to offer another hug. Due to the depletion of FP, a player may be less inclined to hug Elden Ring's Fia, but repeatedly doing so will offer more than just FP. Regularly holding Fia will offer new dialogue options, possible questlines, game lore, and even an item required for one of the game's multiple endings.

IGN explains that as the underwear is detailed and was ultimately deleted from the game,
