Bandai Namco Now Investigating Elden Ring After 'Serious Exploit', Dark Souls PC Servers Stay Offline

Bandai Namco has made an official announcement recognising the current technical difficulties with the Dark Souls games on PC, and has said that it is now looking into Elden Ring ahead of launch to ensure the problem does not affect the new FromSoftware game.

“Due to the time required to set up proper testing environments, online services for the Dark Souls series on PC will not resume until after the release of Elden Ring,” says the statement.

The users who discovered the exploit noted that it could affect Elden Ring, but thankfully FromSoft’s work on the issue seems to mean that Elden Ring will launch on PC without problems.
