Elden Ring Fan Makes Harley Quinn (Game Rant)

One talented Elden Ring player uses the new additions in the latest patch, 1.08, to make a famous character from the DC Universe, Harley Quinn.

For those who don't know, Harley Quinn is a character from the DC Universe who first appeared in Batman: The Animated Series as Joker's henchwoman. Notably, the player has used the dual-ponytail hairstyle in Elden Ring, which was introduced in the recent update. Now, one Elden Ring player has used one of the newly added hairstyles to make a well-known DC character, Harley Quinn. Each photo in the collage shows Harley Quinn in a different pose; in two of them, she's wielding Great Hammers. One picture shows a close-up of her face, whereas the remaining two display Harley Quinn in different clothes. It is a new PvP variant where Elden Ring players can battle each other to the death without being able to respawn.

Elden Ring Director Has 'More Things' He Wants to Do With the Game (Game Rant)

During The Game Awards 2022, Elden Ring Director Hidetaka Miyazaki seemingly soft confirms that DLC is on the way.

It's no secret that Miyazaki doesn't like sequels, which is why a proper Bloodborne sequel is unlikely to ever happen, but that means fans can expect just as much excitement and innovation in the company's next Soulslike title, whenever it comes along. However, many would no doubt prefer to see some story-based, premium DLC that dives into [Malenia's brother Miquella](https://gamerant.com/elden-ring-dlc-miquella-boss-fight-power-changes-child-god/), the Gloam-Eyed queen, or any of the other lore tidbits spread around the game. Of course, as Armored Core 6 shows, FromSoftware is not just limiting itself to Elden Ring. [Elden Ring](https://gamerant.com/tag/elden-ring/) won some big awards, though, including Best Direction and Game of the Year. [Elden Ring finally opened the Colosseums found in Limgrave, Leyndell, and Caelid](https://gamerant.com/elden-ring-tips-winning-team-fights-colosseum/).

Elden Ring's Bizarre Bill Clinton TGA Moment Ends In Arrest (Screen Rant)

The person who spoiled Elden Ring's Game of the Year acceptance speech by thanking Bill Clinton for the win has apparently been arrested.

While The Game Awards 2022 was filled with fascinating reveals and powerful performances, the event's greatest moment was sadly ruined by a strange bystander. Elden Ring director Hidetaka Miyazaki's Game of the Year acceptance speech should've been a triumphant moment for the esteemed developer, but an intruder sadly spoiled the moment. While there were many amazing games nominated for this year's event, many fans expected the Game of The Year to come down to Elden Ring and God of War Ragnarok, both of which dominated with other wins throughout the show. As of now, it's impossible to speculate about the interrupter's identity. The individual could be seen standing behind the Elden Ring developers during their GOTY acceptance speech, and nobody seemed to approach them or attempt to remove them from the stage, with their presence seemingly unquestioned. [Elden Ring](https://screenrant.com/tag/elden-ring/) Game of the Year award acceptance speech during [The Game Awards 2022](https://screenrant.com/tag/game-awards/) has been arrested.

More Elden Ring DLC Confirmed by Miyazaki at TGA 2022 (Game Revolution)

Director Hidetaka Miyazaki seemingly confirmed further Elden Ring DLC at The Game Awards 2022 during his GOTY acceptance.

As for Elden Ring, we still have several more things we want to do, and getting this GOTY award really encourages us.” While accepting the Game of the Year award at [The Game Awards 2022](/tag/the-game-awards-2022), he explained that [FromSoftware](/tag/fromsoftware) has “several” things planned for Elden Ring.
