The long-awaited and highly-anticipated FromSoftware game, Elden Ring, has revealed another two starting classes available to players.<\/p>\n

The two revealed classes are the Confessor and the Samurai, the former being described as a \u2018Church Spy\u2019 and the latter a warrior from a distant land skilled with a katana and longbow.<\/p>\n

Elden Ring features mobile, fast-paced gameplay and is the first FromSoftware Soulslike game to include mounted combat.<\/p><\/div>\n

The Confessor features stats geared towards a hybrid playstyle, using both Incantations and melee weapons in combat.<\/p>\n

However, it will initially not be able to wear heavier armour sets and require greater dodging skills to survive.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, the Samurai is a pure fighter-type class focusing on melee and ranged weaponry, with a particular preference for katana-type weapons and longbows.<\/p>\n

This class will be able to wear heavier armours at the start of the game than the Confessor – granting it greater survivability.<\/p>\n

Below is the tweet published by Elden Ring that revealed the two classes.<\/p>\n

\n

CONFESSOR: A church spy adept at covert operations. Equally adept with a sword as they are with their incantations.<\/p>\n

SAMURAI: A capable fighter from the distant Land of Reeds. Handy with katana and longbows.<\/p>\n
