Elden Ring, the highly anticipated collaboration between Dark Souls developer From Software and Game of Thrones author George RR Martin, is out in less than a week, finally giving us the chance to dive into another punishingly hard adventure. Here's everything you need to know about Elden Ring's release timing, file size, and preload details. This way, you'll be able to play it as soon as it unlocks.

If you are playing on PC in California, you get to start early.
