This is all thanks to its incredibly large world and painstakingly detailed lore that lore hunters are trying to uncover to this day. Its vibrant gameplay mechanics verify this game stays fresh even if players are stepping into this world for the fourth or even fifth time.
And so, gamers who have been playingElden Ringsince its launch could not help but celebrate this game’s second anniversary in a special way. They took a bunch of never-before-seen screenshots from the Lands Between and started posting online, and slowly a whole world of fans came together to do the same.
The Elden Ring community comes together as the game celebrates its second anniversary
Launched back in 2022,Elden Ringis without a doubt one of the best games to ever be released on any console. Then again, the same can be said of any FromSoftware game ever released; they have a knack for making some incredible titles. That’s why it came as no surprise thatElden Ringended up winning the Game of the Year award for 2022.

No, just that; it even crossedThe Last of Us Part 2as the game with the mostGame of the Year awards ever.And no doubt things like this do not just happen out of the blue; a lot of effort goes into making a game that is fun to play, has unmatched replayability, and is a critical darling too.
FromSoftware’s dedication to this game is such that they started working on its expansion,Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, close to its launch, or possibly even before that, and then announced its launch date just a while ago.
What connects this game’s community even further is the fact that it’s full of secrets. People keep covering new things on a daily basis. Its story is told in such a manner that fans had to piece it together in order to understand it in its entirety. To this day, many YouTubers and fans have come up with their own theories about the happenings in this game.

That’s why it completely makes sense that fans from all over came together to celebrate this milestone. After all, there are not many single-player games that retain this size of player base after two years of launch. Games like Starfield lost steam within weeks of their launch.
There are even some multiplayer games that do not live long enough to see a second year in their life cycle. In such an environment, a game that spans two years with a decent player base is nothing short of incredible.
Fans are posting their best Elden Ring screenshots online
To celebrateElden Ring’s two-year anniversary, many fans took to Twitter/X to either talk about how much they like this game or just post some incredible in-game screenshots. It is just incredible to see a whole community of gamers come together for a game that brought the soul-like genre to the open world.
Happy 2 year anniversary to FromSoftware’s magnum opus, Elden Ring.
Never saw a game unite the community quite like this. We willingly embraced the memes and edits. We were in this together as lowly tarnished.

It remains to be seen if the upcoming DLCElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtreehas a similar staying power. Going by FromSoftware and game director Hidetaka Miyazaki’s history in game direction, it might even end up surpassing its base game in many ways.
