Hint: It's NOT the Elden beast from 'Elden Ring'...

Rise, tarnished

It was announced yesterday at 3a.m.EST on Twitter and gamers are still freaking out about it!

Ashen one, hearest thou my voice, still? Rise, if you would. Whatever thou be-est, thou'rt wondrous strange, yet strangely familiar, visitor. We've waited through the age of darkness to grant you these dank Dark Souls memes . Do you accept? Fear not the dark, my friend. And let the feast begin.

FromSoftware's wildly popular action RPG Elden Ring has been out for several months. The post-traumatic Elden Ring stress might have worn off by now, so we thought we might round up another batch of funny and relatable memes to remind the fans just how much they miss dying hundreds of times in a row until the wee hours of the morning. Maybe these memes will even inspire you to start up a new game with a totally different build this time around. Enter, tarnished. Traverse the mist for memes.

There's been some interesting gaming world news lately. Rockstar Games announced that they plan to shelve its remasters of Red Dead Redemption and Grand Theft Auto IV in favor of the highly anticipated Grand Theft Auto VI. Hopefully this means we'll get to finally play GTA 6 this century. 

2022 has been an exciting year for gamers so far— Elden Ring actually lived up to the hype. Kirby and the Forgotten Land is as adorable as it is fun. The Steam Deck proved that “ PC2 ” isn't just a meme anymore. Not to mention, the tech behind powerful gaming engines seems to be progressing faster than ever! We can't wait to see what 2023 will bring for gamers everywhere. Until then, we've rounded up some of our favorite gaming memes of the week. Enjoy.

Greetings, gam ing enthusiasts .

While this phenomenon has slowed down a little in th…

We're back with another round of our favorite gaming memes of the week. And if you're in the mood for even more dank gaming memes, we've got plenty more where that came from here , here , here , and here . Oh, and here as well.

A naked, pot-headed, katana-wielding Elden Ring player has charmed the online gaming community with his dedication to defeating one of the game's most difficult bosses for other players in need. After completing Elden Ring, gamer Klein Tsuboi devoted countless hours to mastering Malenia, Blade of Miquela—a notoriously hard optional boss who heals every time she lands a hit on you (yes, even if you block). If a player attempting the feat does manage to dodge enough of her rapid hits and get Male…

Some games feel like they're designed to stump you. Like the Dark Souls games before it, Elden Ring isn't exactly forthcoming with hot tips or guidance, which adds to the overall feelings of frustration, paranoia and hostility. Even when there aren't any evident threats around, it's really not smart to let your guard down at any moment while playing. You will often find yourself questioning whether or not it's a good idea to pick up seemingly innocuous objects, or embrace enigmatic women offeri…

Get the elf his ring! But seriously, these gamers are here trying to help Elden Ring players advance.
