PC Gamer magazine's new issue is on sale now: Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree

This month PC Gamer delivers world-exclusive access to Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, the incredible new expansion to the award-winning action RPG. To do this, PC Gamer flies to Japan, visits FromSoftware's Tokyo studio, interviews Elden Ring's legendary creator Hidetaka Miyazaki, and goes hands-on with Shadow of the Erdtree for more than seven hours. It's a mega scoop, and your ultimate guide to all things Shadow of the Erdtree.

In addition, this issue also features two other awesome features. Firstly, we speak at length with famous Crytek co-founder, Cevat Yerli, about the creation of the now long-running and popular Far Cry series. This exclusive feature reveals in detail just how the Crytek team brought the original Far Cry to life, overcoming serious hurdles in the process, and ultimately changing the gaming industry forever. A must-read for Far Cry fans, as well as lovers of FPS games in general. 

Then, secondly, we begin one Dragonborn's mad adventure to become Baldur's Gate's foremost librarian, a quest that will see many, many books be collected with the aim of opening a library in the great city. Adventure, and plenty of books, await!

This issue is loaded with quality previews and reviews, too, including going hands-on with the gore-filled new shooter, Killing Floor 3, dark co-op tactical survival game, The Forever Winter, innovative indie studio title, Screenbound, as well as Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown, Underspace, and Sonokuni. Meanwhile, over in this issue's reviews section, the PC Gamer team delivers authoritative verdicts on dramatic space opera RTS, Homeworld 3, as well as MotoGP 24, V Rising, Hellbade 2: Senua's Saga, Indika, and Men of War II, among other games.

All that plus a group test on top OLED gaming monitors, a reinstall of macho FPS Crysis 2, a dramatic continuation of our muscle-filled Wrestling Empire diary, a detailed look at everything new in co-op online shooter of the moment, Helldivers 2, a feature on the pleasure of falling asleep to PC gaming longplays, a comprehensive guide to ruling like a king in Manor Lords, a secret level discussing the art of creating point-and-click games, the latest dispatch from The Spy, a new case to be cracked for the PCG Investigator, Dick Ray-Tracing, and much more too.
