One particular detail stands out for what it would have meant for the game if it had been implemented.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps the most striking is the Cataclysm mechanic. A system that would allow players to interact with objects on the map, causing different natural disasters to occur in the game. <strong>The two examples found are meteorites falling from the sky and snow avalanches causing dramatic changes in the topography of the map<\/strong>. These events would cause certain areas to become inaccessible now, and other previously hidden areas to become passable. Something that would have made Elden Ring even more massive and interesting than it already is.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"New Unused Maps in Elden Ring - Cut Content\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/37BUPfZQ_EM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If they decided not to do it, it was probably because of the cost involved. The most likely reasons for not going ahead with it were that it could generate confusion, make level design much more difficult, and <strong>could create situations where players would get stuck without the possibility of reversing the situation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is it possible that we will see cataclysms in Shadow of the Erdtree, the Elden Ring DLC? It doesn&#8217;t seem likely. <strong>This is deleted content from the game, abandoned in the source code, and<\/strong> <strong>there is nothing to indicate that they can recover it in the future<\/strong>. At least not for Elden Ring. That doesn&#8217;t mean we wouldn&#8217;t be excited to see what a studio like From Software can do with a mechanism like the cataclysm.
