“Elden Ring“, the famous game from FromSoftware, whose production includes the participation of George RR Martin, has been a landmark in the gaming community since its launch, which took place in February 2022.
Now, more than a year and a half after launch, players are making a surprising discovery: a mysterious sword that has been hidden from the beginning.
Since the game’s release, players have eagerly explored the game’s vast world in search of secrets, but this new find is truly remarkable.
A sword, which had been removed from the final version of the game, remained hidden in the Intermediate Lands, going unnoticed by players for more than a year. This discovery reignited fans’ enthusiasm to unravel the game’s mysteries.
Ziostorm, a content creator specializing in soulslike games, brought this conundrum to light a few months ago.
He discovered that there were three swords with identical hilt designs and the same length that were not used in the final version of the game.
These swords seemed to be related in some way, which piqued the interest of the gaming community.
Another content creator, PinoPinisimo, decided to investigate this conundrum further. He discovered that the three swords, although not usable, were present in the game as funerary decoration elements in the Lands Between.
“After watching your video, those swords were stuck in my head for weeks. You can imagine how I jumped out of my chair when I realized.”said in response to the tweet.
The discovery raised the hypothesis that these swords were more than just decorative objects. The gaming community was increasingly intrigued by the possibility of unraveling the mystery behind these swords.
The secret was hidden in plain sight, and revealing it was no easy task. In turn, players had to closely examine the decorative sword hilts, a detail that would normally go unnoticed.
Confirmation that they were the same swords only came when the tips of the swordswhich were hidden under the floor, were compared.
This step revealed that it was the mysterious swords that had been removed from the game.
Theories and questions remain open
The discovery of the swords raised new questions. Why were these swords removed from the game? What was their original purpose?
Players and fans of “Elden Ring” are now speculating about the possible function of the swords. One theory suggests that there could be a mission to transform one of the swords into one of the other two versions.
After being sharpened, the first sword would transform into the second and this, in turn, would become the third after passing through the Frenzied Flame. This raises the possibility that the swords could have been part of a future DLC quest.
