Elden Ring will be on the receiving end of a fairly significant-sounding update next week. The patch will drop on the 20th June, just before Shadow of the Erdtree launches on the 21st June. FromSoftware says that the update will include “new features” as well as “balance adjustments”.
Fortunately, the developer’s gone on to provide some details. We’ve went ahead and gathered them into the following patch notes:
New Inventory features:
- Newly obtained items will be marked with a “!“.
- A new tab called “Recent Items” has been added to review recently obtained items.
New Summoning Pool features:
- Active Summoning Pools will now be carried over to NG+.
- Individual Summoning Pools can now be enabled / disabled in the newly added Map Functions Menu.
- Only active Summoning Pools will be selected when using the Small Golden Effigy.
New hairstyles:
- Five new hairstyles have been added to the game. They can be selected during character creation, using the Clouded Mirror Stand or using Rennala’s Rebirth feature.
FromSoftware also confirms that the patch will boast additional features that aren’t mentioned here. Hopefully they’re a nice surprise!
