Five new hairstyles have been added to the game.
Other features will also be included in the same update, coming June 20.
Because elden ring lags and struggles to keep fps at 60 sometimes with a 3080, why even try to go higher. I'd also saybthay playing ultra wide gives a vision advantage and PvP and invaders being a thing I'd prefer not.
The new items stuff in particular seems like QoL considerations for "we just added a hundred items to the game for players coming back to it after months away."
Sadly for me unless they're fixing their terrible networking/co op system and adding an option to turn off the insanely annoying invasion system in giving it a pass.
As much as I enjoyed the base game, I don't think I can put up with that along with having to relearn how to play.
