Choose the one that's best for your needs.
Elden Ring is incoming, bringing a new FromSoftware game for players to explore that could end up as one of the best Xbox RPGs available. Like past games that the studio developed, Elden Ring allows players to choose a starting class. This doesn't keep you from going in a different direction with your build later on but is instead meant to provide you with different starting stats, equipment, and magic. Here's all the Elden Ring classes and their differences we know about so far.
