Elden Ring Global Release Timings Revealed

We’re in the final stretch now, as it is the week leading up to the release of From Software’s highly anticipated Elden Ring. The collaboration project between George R. R. Martin and Hidetaka Miyazaki, creating the Lands Between and sending you, The Tarnished, out into the world of fantasy and horrors. To say fans are excited would be an understatement, as just last week more footage of the game leaked online ahead of release.

Only days to go now and it seems excitement can’t get any higher, though over on Twitter via the Elden Ring account, you can find out when you’ll be able to play the game for each platform. Of course, those time travelers over in the fantasy land of New Zealand get the first release, but so does everyone, as 12-noon in New Zealand on the 25th and 11 PM in the UK on the 24th of February are the same time. PC players worldwide will get access the earliest, with central Europe getting access at midnight for both console and PC.

Those on the east coast of the US get access on PC at 6 PM, those around central time get access at 5 PM, and those on the Pacific get access at 3 PM. The console release is a little bit of a different story, as Eastern US players will get access at midnight on the morning of the 25th, central at 11 PM on the 24th, and pacific players at 9 PM. Though oddly enough, five hours ahead of New York, UK console players get access at midnight local time on the 25th, as does every other timezone to their local timezones. Meanwhile, preloads for both Steam and PlayStation players will be available 48-hours ahead of release, while Xbox players can preload right now.
