Gaming News Elden Ring: From Software has fun spreading secret walls that are better hidden than others

Secret walls, a real part of level design made in From Software

The secret walls in From Software games are honestly one of the most well-known mysteries in gaming. They have been present since the first Souls and are almost impossible to discover unless you comb through the different levels of these titles. It is also not insignificant to find messages from players that indicate the presence of these said walls or, on the contrary, make you believe that they exist.

These well-hidden walls, which sometimes contain treasures, traps or even secret passages, are obviously present in Elden Ring, the latest from From Software. The game even has mini-dungeons made entirely of secret walls. A predominant part of the gameplay therefore. Rolling or kicking is usually enough to spot one. Except that one player’s recent discovery could change the situation around them.

Arm yourself with a sword… and patience

When usually one swipe or roll is enough to reveal a secret wall, Elden Ring would contain passages hidden behind walls requiring more than fifty hits. Bug or real choice of From Software? Nothing is certain at the moment and it’s unlikely the studio will come back to it.

So yes, in the video it is true that at first glance the wall does appear to contain something. But we have to admit that the user’s relentlessness has something to smile about. The passage is readily revealed and has probably already deterred more than one passing player. It also remains to be seen whether Elden Ring will contain other secrets of this type, or whether this component is inherent in this dungeon.
