One of the biggest video games to release in the past year is Elden Ring, and at this point, word of its success has gone all across the world. The punishing game has sold over 16 million copies so far, and the number keeps growing. Naturally, this indicates that Elden Ring is looking towards methods of growth outside the gaming industry, and ComicWalker has just aided the IP with its very own manga.
Fans of Elden Ring were surprised when ComicWalker uploaded a new comic series based on the game, which is available to read in 12 languages. The artwork of the comic is looked after by Nikiichi Tobita. The next issue is scheduled for 19 September and it will be released concurrently with the Japanese edition.
The official synopsis of the manga reads: Aseo, a poor, Tarnished wretch, finds himself cast out into Limgrave-naked, penniless, hopeless, and maidenless. His only hope in his harsh, unforgiving new home is a mysterious woman named Melina. She urges him to follow the guidance of grace to the Erdtree that looms over the Lands Between. But it won’t be an easy road; a cast of colorful characters awaits Aseo along the way-Patches the Untethered, Blaidd the Half-Wolf, Margit the Fell Omen, Godrick the Grafted, and of course, Ranni the Witch…With little but a loincloth between Aseo and certain death, he strikes out for the first stop on his quest: Stormveil Castle. Will he make it there, or will his journey end before it even begins?
