Elden Ring Dev Reveals Two New Classes: The Astrologer And Bandit

FromSoftware’s upcoming high-fantasy action RPG Elden Ring has managed to get most of the gamers out there excited, and while new leaks from the game are occasionally trickling out, such as the character creator, certain magic abilities in the game, and even the PC requirements, FromSoftware, for the most part, has been very tight-lipped about the game. As the release date is slowly creeping towards the finish line, the developers have been sharing more info regarding the game.

Through the official Elden Ring Twitter account, FromSoftware revealed the two new classes players can play as in the upcoming game. The first class, called a Bandit, is expected to excel in ranged combat with bows, while also being swift to attack in close combat.

The second class, called Astrologer, are scholars who are the heirs to the school of “glinstone sorcery”, reading fate in the stars. Judging by the description, the character is meant to be a sorcerer class.

Apart from the above, not much has been revealed, however, players can expect more information, as Elden Ring, which has currently gone gold, releases for PC and consoles on February 25 this year.

BANDIT: A dangerous bandit who strikes for weak points. Excels at ranged combat with bows.

ASTROLOGER: A scholar who reads fate in the stars. Heir to the school of glintstone sorcery.
