So, you’ve purchased or are about to purchase Elden Ring. Good choice. In our Elden Ring review in progress, we awarded the game a rare 10/10.

Well lowly Tarnished, yes, indeed there is. And we're here to help.

In this Elden Ring beginner's guide video, we offer our nine best tips to make your way through the Lands Between at the start of the game. From the very outset, we let you know which starting gift is best, and where you should look to get Golden Seeds and Sacred Tears to upgrade your Flasks of Tears.

There are other tips in there too, so it's very useful if you're playing Elden Ring for the first time.
