It sounds like George R. R. Martin isn’t as involved in Elden Ring’s development as you might think.
But since Elden Ring was officially revealed, and we learned what role he played in its development, we haven’t really heard anything from the author about his work on the game.
“Actually, it’s considerably different,” Martin said about game development compared to his normal line of work.
Martin also explained the type of work he actually did for the game, and it sounds like it was very hands-off.
