It looks like a leaked Elden Ring trailer may be circulating online ahead of a long-awaited official announcement about FromSoftware's next game, but take any individual videos or images you see with several grains of salt.

According to reports from VGC, Eurogamer, and beyond, a partial, off-screen recording of a new Elden Ring trailer has been making the rounds around the internet for the last few weeks. While some have shared snippets from the trailer on social media, others are taking the opportunity to sow confusion by uploading grainy, altered footage of other Souls-like games and claiming it comes from the source in question.
