Possible Elden Ring leak from Chinese Soulsbourne content creator

Once again, grain of salt.

But first up are two concept arts in very low quality:

A translation of his video via Reddit

  1. Two concept arts are revealed. Check this (/r/Eldenring/comments/kmbfj4/leaked_concept_arts_from_a_reputable_chinese/ ) for details.
  2. The game world is based on the world tree from Norse mythology, and also references something from Celtic mythology.
  3. The gameplay is similar to Dark Souls, but the map is much larger, includes dynamic weather and day/night alternation. Imagine you fight with a Boss from day to night, he said, and the weather changes from sunny to thunderous.
  4. The modeling of enemies is more complex, and there will be cthulu-style enemies similar to bloodborne.
  5. Remember that red hair giant (Look up at sky, it burns)? He was badly wounded in a battle. His faction is characterized by red hair and the use of large weapons. There is also a faction characterized by white hair. The two biggest factions he has known so far seem to have come from the same ancestor, but have split up eventually.
  6. The guy with a lot of hands at the beginning of the 2019 trailer is probably an NPC.
  7. That crestfallen dude will appear again.
  8. Waifu (similar to fire keeper)
  9. Patches may not appear, or not appear in human form (bloodborne spider).
  10. There are characters like Gael and the xanthous king.
  11. The game development stage has been completed in the first half of 2020 and is now in the polishing stage. The game will be released in 2021, he's pretty sure. It's possible to see a new trailer after the Japanese New Year.

I can't really make out anything from the first image. But the second one looks sick.

If it's fake, the monster design makes it a very good fake lol.

If it's fake, then the concept art was done JUST for this fake. Google can't find a damn thing on those images any older than a few hours.

Is this different from the rumors from a few days ago mentioning the game was content complete earlier this year and has been in a polishing phase or is this a secondary confirmation of that?

The thirst for this game is real. Can't wait to get my hands on this, everything about this game excites me.

There is like 0 info in this "leak".

The only thing of worth would be the release window.

The art (what you can make out) looks really nice, especially that snake design.

The bullet points really tell me this is most likely fake, though :(

Japanese new year? like the regular new year? The few info bits seem like same old stuff, but the art looks convincing.
edit: perhaps since a chinese content creator the distinction would make sense, still waiting on real news

The images don't come up immediately on reverse Google image search - so if it is fake - they are least tried.
