Even Elden Ring's director doesn't know why the game is so successful

Elden Ring has obviously been a massive success, but director and Dark Souls creator Hidetaka Miyazaki doesn’t really know why.

It’s very hard to argue that Elden Ring has been anything other than a huge success. Whether it’s the 16.6 million copies that were sold worldwide, or the widespread critical acclaim, this one has been a bit of a belter for developer FromSoftware. But what are the reasons behind the game’s achievements? According to Miyazaki himself, he has “no idea what the reason was.”

Earlier in the week, Elden Ring won the Grand Award at the PlayStation Partner Awards 2022 Japan Asia, held in Tokyo, an award given to the two games developed within Asia that had the highest number of sales, Genshin Impact being the other recipient. Following the event, Miyazaki took part in an interview, where he was asked for his thoughts on why the game has done so well (thanks, IGN).
