Following Warfare, Alex Garland and A24 are partnering for their next feature film. Nexus Point News can exclusively report that Garland is set to direct an adaptation of the critically acclaimed video game, Elden Ring.
Elden Ring is a role playing game developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. The game was released on February 25, 2022 on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. The game was directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki (Dark Souls) and Yui Tanimura.

The game went on to win several awards at the 2022 Game Awards including “Game of the Year.” Its expansion pack, Shadow of the Erdtree went on to be nominated for “Game of the Year” at the 2024 Game Awards.
Elden Ring follows the journey of the Tarnished, exiles summoned to the Lands Between to collect the shattered pieces of the powerful Elden Ring. The Ring’s destruction has thrown the world into chaos, and the Tarnished must undergo several “boss fights” and uncover the secrets to restore the Elden Ring and become the new Elden Lord.
Garland is best known for his writing debut, 28 Days Later, his directorial debut, Ex Machina, and several other films such as Annihilation, Civil War, and Warfare.
