Elden Ring player discovers new weapon over a year later

Dataminers had discovered a sword inElden Ringthat had people scratching their heads. They could tell what the swords looked like, but the search went without success. Fans chalked it up to cut content and moved along.

However, it seems the sword has been staring us in the face this whole time. The original datamine revealed several icons showing three unique swords; one encased in stone, and two more unsheathed with designs on the blade. After a year and a half the stone sword has been found.

The complex and intricate game is still throwing out secrets

Obviously FromSoftware went to the effort of designing the sword and, rather than scrap it completely, ended up using it as a prop. The theory goes, the intricately designed weapons were supposed to be created using the stone sword as a base. Meaning the three designs were all linked and could have been a part of a long questline.

Players, ever since the game launched, have continued looking for secrets and little easter eggs and whenever they think there’s nothing left, a stone sword pops up. As we run up to the release ofElden Ring’s DLC, fans will be keeping their eyes peeled for any new details inpatches and updates.
