Thanks to the YouTuber VaatiVidya, you won’t need to scour every inch of the Lands Between to comprehend Elden Ring. In a 30 minute video, the YouTuber explains a ton of the story taking place in FromSoftware’s latest epic and how each narrative intertwines with one another.

The video, currently trending on YouTube, highlights many of Elden Ring’s most prominent figures including The Two Fingers, The Erdtree, and, of course, The Elden Beast alongside a ton of other characters and items from the game.

Alongside this lore-explained video, the YouTuber has also gone into depth with previous uploads covering the game’s biggest secrets, essential discoveries, and, of course, guides and tips for new players to help them survive in the Lands Between.
