Since it hit store shelves earlier this year on February 25,Elden Ringhas remained oneof the most popular releases in the contemporary gaming sphere among both critics and players alike. It seems gamers just cannot get enough of its vast yet detailed open world, sprawling narrative, and challenging boss fights. However, while these gameplay aspects prove to be the main appeals of the game for most players, there is a large portion of theElden Ringcommunity that adores the character creator system. Now, one fan has reinforced this notion of the community, as they recreated the titular hero fromHe-Man.

Serving as a spiritual successor of sorts to its previous titles, it proved to be one of the most hotly anticipated games for 2022. Directed by Hidetaka Miyazaki in collaboration with prestigious author George R. R. Martin,Elden Ringscored universal acclaim from critics through near-perfect review scores and isFromSoftware’s all-time best-selling video game. With such an impact on the gaming industry, it should come as no surprise that many players are still exploring everything the game offers.
