Game of Thrones author Gorge R.R. Martin contributed to the lore of the upcoming game Elden Ring, and now the writer has discussed the project in more depth.

Posting on his blog, Martin said From Software's Hidetaka Miyazaki and his team reached out to him "a few years back" to discuss the potential of helping the team work on Elden Ring for its backstory and history.

Martin acknowledged that video games are "not really my thing," but the opportunity to work on Elden Ring was "too exciting to refuse," he said.
