What ’s the next FromSoftware hit ?
There is no doubtfulness that the mortal - like genre has explode since the days of King ’s Field , Dark Souls , and Bloodborne ; Elden Ring is the epitome of the writing style ’s winner . With the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC hoopla , one has to expect anything FromSoftware President of the United States Hidetaka Miyazaki directs will be a megahit , but does he feel the same ?
Will FromSoftware create another hit like Elden Ring?
In an interview withThe Guardian , Miyazaki suppose , " No conclusion is base on any assumption that , hey , we did it once , it ’s going to happen again . Allowing for this rather cautious forecast give way us room to fail – and that in turn results in better game and better decisions . In a roundabout agency , I think that premise of not making another bang , that conservative expectation , is fueling and aiding our game pattern . "
Miyazaki and his squad ’s humble approach to creating and contrive video recording game may be the tonality to their success . Instead of set out to make a blockbuster statute title , FromSoftware creates the secret plan it wants to make . FromSoftware has fine - tuned the challenging souls - similar gameplay while making tweaks so it feels unlike between titles , allowing the games to feel similar but decided at the same time .
What’s next for Miyazaki and FromSoftware
FromSoftware has collar the action RPG , but it is n’t the only literary genre Miyazaki has an interest group in . Miyazaki was involved as a director with the PlayStation VR exclusive Deracine ( a narrative - tug biz ) , and has work onArmored Core IV : Fires of Rubicon(a shooter ) . Despite being primarily roll in the hay for the Souls games and their relate title now , the possibilities are reasonably open in terminal figure of what Miyazaki could work on next .
What excite me the most is Miyazaki ’s interest in traditional JRPG games , as he brought up in an consultation withRolling Stone . While FromSoftware make a JRPG called Enchanted Arms , that was before Miyazaki ’s sentence , just as King ’s Field was . I truly hope we get a JRPG with Miyazaki ’s worldbuilding and aesthetics .
That said , FromSoftware has numerous choice for where they could go next . Miyazaki is done with Elden Ring now , but that does n’t think Elden Ring 2 is off the book . We could also see a sequel to Sekiro : Shadows Die double , Dark Souls 4 , or even the heavily requested Bloodborne remake . Regardless of FromSoftware ’s next step , fans are likely to exhaust it up , despite Miyazaki ’s lack of hubris .
