At The Game Awards 2024, Geoff Keighley announced that we're getting a (not quite) sequel to Elden Ring, which will launch as a co-op game, allowing multiple players to take on the original game's bosses in a collaborative environment.
As the main title indicates, Eldon Ring Night Walk It will be distributed by Bandai Namco. It will launch in 2025 for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

Well, let's be surprised.
Tencent’s mobile version of Elden Ring is also reportedly in development. But who knows if that will come to pass, even if it's true.
