How to unlock all Elden Ring endings From SoftwareUnlocking the endings in Elden Ring can be challenging, with some being more difficult to attain than others due to specific requirements. Here\u2019s a comprehensive guide to obtaining all six endings in Elden Ring. As seen in previous Souls titles, Elden Ring offers players multiple endings that spark ongoing debates among the player community. Mirroring the moral ambiguity of Dark Souls, players must navigate a series of big decisions towards the game\u2019s climax, each carrying the risk of unforeseen consequences. When they come face to face with the Elden Ring, the player needs to decide whether they want to repair it and try to continue the established order, or do they shatter it entirely and usher in a new age? The player can also ally with various other characters and choose an Elden Ring ending that suits that group, however, will they be condemning others in the same breath? Heavy is the head that wears the Elden Crown, and no ending in the game, is truly \u2018good\u2019 or \u2018bad\u2019, it all depends on your point of view. However, a sequel or future DLC could prove this entirely wrong. Here\u2019s how to unlock every ending in Elden Ring including the Elden Lord (all four variants), Ranni\u2019s ending, and harnessing the power of the Chaos Flame. How to unlock each ending in Elden Ring You can unlock the game\u2019s default ending by simply playing through the story and completing the game. Although, throughout your journey through The Lands Between you\u2019ll meet a variety of NPCs who will try to guide you down a different path. Luckily, the game\u2019s opening cutscene introduces you to the NPCs you\u2019ll need to look out for. The ones most relevant to this guide are Fia, Goldmask, and Dung Eater. Along with Gideon Ofnir and Horah Loux, these are your fellow Tarnished Champions, and like you, all aim to become Elden Lord, or at least to influence whoever else does. You can unlock their endings by following their questlines to the end. You may also begin to agree and sympathize with their cause while you do. Each one of them has a good reason for their quest, and no matter how twisted their logic is and each of them can make the Lands Between a better place \u2013 even the mass-murdering Dung Eater. Ranni\u2019s quest also leads to another ending, as does following Hyetta\u2019s quest which begins outside of Castle Morne. Remember, it\u2019s possible to complete Fia, Goldmask, Dung Eater, and Ranni\u2019s quests in one playthrough, then pick who to side with at the end. Hyetta\u2019s quest, however, will see you betray everyone \u2013 and watch while the world burns. Choosing this ending locks it in motion, however, it can be reversed \u2013 it takes more work. How to get the default \u2018Elden Lord\u2019 ending Also known as the \u2018Age of Fracture ending\u2019, this is the easiest one to unlock and simply requires you to follow the game\u2019s story to the end. Essentially, do everything Melina and Gideon Ofnir tell you to do, even after both characters are no longer around to guide you. To unlock this ending, do the following: Beat at least two Shard Holders. Godrick and Rennala will likely be the first two you come across, but you can also target Rykard, Radahn, Malenia, and Mohg. We like to beat them all, just in case. – Make your way to the Capital City and beat Morgott, the Omen King at the Elden Throne. – Speak to Melina and travel to the Forge of the Giants. – Beat the Fire Giant boss and burn the Erdtree \u2013 you\u2019ll no longer have access to Melina after this point. – You\u2019ll be transported to Crumbling Farum Azula. – Defeat Malekith for the final missing piece of the Elden Ring. – Travel back to the Throne Room to defeat Gideon Ofnir, then Horah Loux \/ Godfrey. – Defeat Radagon and the Elden Beast. – Claim the Elden Ring and your throne. – This is the first ending most players will see, and you\u2019ll now officially be Elden Lord of The Lands Between. However, is there much point in ruling a dead and decaying world? Could there be a better path? How to unlock Fia\u2019s ending Also known as the \u2018Age of Duskborn ending,\u2019 this one involves becoming Elden Lord but also making Fia\u2019s vision a reality. Fia is the Deathbed Companion you meet at the Roundtable Hold. She\u2019s the one who offers you hugs that decrease your health until you use the powerful items she\u2019s given you. Fia is also a Tarnished champion and will assist you in becoming Elden Lord if you help her in her quest to repair the world. This is one of the most long-winded routes to an ending, as you\u2019ll also need to complete Ranni\u2019s quest to unlock Fia\u2019s. Here\u2019s what you need to do: Meet Fia at the Roundtable Hold and agree to let her hug you. – Meet D, Hunter of the Dead, and complete any minor tasks he asks of you such as meeting the Beast Clergyman. – Continue talking to both D and Fia when you return to the Hold. Also, keep hugging Fia, and eventually, she\u2019ll speak to you in private during one of your hugs. – Fia will give you a Weathered Dagger once you\u2019ve acquired two Elden Ring Shards and will ask you to return it to its owner. – Give the dagger to D. – When you return to the Hold, you\u2019ll find Fia and D missing from their usual spots. Both can be found in the room beyond Hewg and Roderika. Fia will be stood over a murdered D and will use magic to escape. – Now go and complete Ranni\u2019s quest to acquire the Cursemark of Death before continuing with Fia\u2019s. To unlock Fia\u2019s ending you\u2019ll essentially have to side with her over Ranni. (See below) You\u2019ll see more evidence of Fia\u2019s handiwork in the Capital City when you find Lionel\u2019s dead body next to Fia\u2019s dress. – Locate Fia in the Deeproot Depths after you\u2019ve defeated Fia\u2019s Champions in a boss battle. She\u2019ll summon Rogier, Lionel, and 3 random NPCs in different stages. – Talk to Fia after the fight and tell her you\u2019re not here to kill her but to be held. She\u2019ll then cease any hostility. – Now exhaust her dialog until you\u2019re able to give her the Cursemark of Death you got from completing Ranni\u2019s quest. – Leave the area and return to further the dialog, Fia will tell you she\u2019s going to lie with Godwyn\u2019s corpse. – Leave and return to the area again to find Fia sleeping. Approach her to \u2018Enter Godwyn\u2019s dream\u2019. – Defeat the Dragon boss within the dream and talk to Fia again. – Fia will have died (or will have been murdered by D\u2019s twin if you gave him D\u2019s armor during Ranni\u2019s quest), but you can acquire her items and the Mending Rune of the Death-Prince. – Now, after you defeat the final boss, choose the Mending Rune of the Death-Prince instead of simply mending the Elden Ring. – You may disagree with what Fia is trying to achieve, but returning death to The Lands Between not only fixes Marika\u2019s mistakes, but it also frees the land from the curse of undeath. So, while Fia\u2019s mission could be interpreted as dark, it could also be considered a good, if not bleak ending. Remember, you\u2019ll still need to complete all the steps from the default ending too when unlocking this one, at least until you approach the Elden Ring itself. How to unlock Dung Eater\u2019s ending Dung Eater is one of the most detestable and violent characters you\u2019ll meet on your Elden Ring journey. A savage serial killer who seeks to defile the entire world by corrupting the Erd Tree itself. However, is there more to him and his quest than meets the eye? Also, how did such a depraved monster become a Tarnished Champion with such lofty goals? Here\u2019s how to unlock Dung Eater\u2019s ending: Meet Rya in Lirunia and agree to retrieve her missing necklace from a thug. – Travel to the Boilprawn Shack to meet Blackguard Big Boggart. – Endure Boggart\u2019s insults (don\u2019t kill him) and buy back Rya\u2019s pendant. You should also buy a prawn from Boggart to win his trust. He\u2019ll soften towards you after this. – Return the necklace to Rya. – Beat the Magma Wyrm at the Ruin-Strewn Precipice and summon Boggart\u2019s NPC for help taking down the boss. Other NPCs from other questlines can also fight alongside you both. – Speak to Boggart again at the Altus Plateau, Outer Moat area. – Buy some crab from him and he\u2019ll tell you about his ordeal with Dung Eater. – Return to the Roundtable Hold and speak to Roderika, she\u2019ll warn you that something horrible has arrived \u201cdown the hall.\u201d – Meet Dung Eater\u2019s red phantom at the Roundtable Hold. He\u2019ll threaten you and tell you to go away. – Retrieve the Seedbed Curse from the body at the bottom of the true version of Roundtable Hold in the Capital City. Then bring this back to Dung Eater at your version of the Hold. – He\u2019ll now talk to you and give you a key to his prison cell where his \u201ccorporeal flesh\u201d is waiting. – Go down a well in the Capital City to reach the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds. Find Dung Eater\u2019s cell and tell him it\u2019s time to leave. – This will allow Dung Eater\u2019s spirit and body to reunite. Now go to where he was in the Hold to find a rather lovely message to meet him at the Outer Moat. – Return to Boggart to find him in a panic, sensing Dung Eater is nearby. – Now save and exit the game and reload by Boggart. – Boggart will now have been attacked, exhaust his dialog to trigger an invasion by Dung Eater. – Defeat Dung Eater and claim another Seabed Curse from the now-deceased Boggart. – Return to the Hold and speak to Dung Eater again, he\u2019ll tell you more about his purpose and what to do next. He\u2019ll then return to his cell in the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds, tied to a chair. – You\u2019ll now need to track down three more Seedbed Curses to give all five to Dung Eater. – There is another near the East Capital Ramparts, one in the Volcano Manor\u2019s Temple of Eiglay, and another 2 near the prayer room of Elpael, Brace of the Haligtree. – Once you\u2019ve given a total of 5 to Dung Eater, he\u2019ll die leaving you his armor, and the Mending Rune of the Fell Curse. – Use this on the Elden Ring once you\u2019ve beaten the final boss to trigger the Blessing of Despair ending. – While Dung Eater\u2019s goals and methods are objectively horrific, he is essentially creating a world free from the Gods and their control, forcing humanity to tackle despair head-on and grow from the experience. Could his curse really be a blessing? You can also use the potion given to you by Seluvis to turn Dung Eater into a puppet instead of Nepheli Loux. This can be administered to Dung Eater while he\u2019s tied to a chair and eventually turns him into a powerful Spirit Summon. If you decide not to follow Dung Eater\u2019s quest in a playthrough and have already unlocked his gear, you can kill his body when you open his cell. This will also ensure that Boggart survives the story. How to unlock Goldmask\u2019s ending Also known as the \u2018The Age of Order\u2019 this is another variant of the Elden Lord ending. However, this one involves following Brother Corhyn and Goldmask\u2019s questline to its bloody conclusion. At one point during the quest, you\u2019ll need to have 37 intelligence, so if that\u2019s not your build, do a stat respec with Rennala when you need to. You can always just switch back to your original stats after this. Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll need to do: Talk to Brother Corhyn when you arrive at the Roundtable Hold. – Chat to Corhyn regularly and he\u2019ll tell you he\u2019s considering going to the Tarnished Champion Goldmask. – Eventually, he will tell you his mind is made up and he\u2019s leaving soon. When you return to the Hold, Corhyn will be gone. – You\u2019ll meet him again on the road north of the Altus Highway Junction Site of Grace. He\u2019ll tell you he\u2019s looking for Goldmask. – Go north and use a spirit well to ascend the broken highway to find Goldmask standing on a section of it, pointing up at the sun. This is east of the creepy village with the dancing witches. – Goldmask will ignore you, but you can return to Corhyn and tell him where Goldmask is. – Rest at a Site of Grace and return to Goldmask to see that Corhyn has found him, then exhaust the dialog of both. – Once you\u2019ve defeated two Shard Holders, they\u2019ll both move into the Capital City near the Colosseum. – Meet them here and help them solve a riddle by using your 37 intelligence. You\u2019ll also need to perform the incantation Law of Regression. You can get this by giving the Golden Order Principia to Turtle Pope. – Perform the incantation again at the statue near the Eardtree Sanctuary Site of Grace that reads \u2018Regression\u2019. This will cause Goldmask and Corhyn to move to a bridge south of the Stargazers\u2019 Ruins. – Once you\u2019ve beaten the boss Malekith and triggered the transformation of the Capital City, you\u2019ll see that relations have broken down between Goldmask and Coryhn. Goldmask is now dead, and his student has gone quite mad. – However, if you\u2019d like to see Goldmask\u2019s vision fulfilled, take the Mending Rune of Perfect Order off Goldmask\u2019s body \u2013 and put Corhyn out of his misery. – Now use this on the Elden Ring after the final boss. – Like Fia and Dung Eater\u2019s quests, this is a variant of the Elden Lord ending, therefore all the steps from the first ending will still need to be followed. Goldmask has also figured out a way to save the world from the control of the mad pantheon, but the question is, why did this horrify his biggest fan and put him on the path to murder and madness? How to unlock Ranni\u2019s ending We covered Ranni\u2019s ending in our full guide to her quest, but to unlock her \u2018Age of Stars ending\u2019 you\u2019ll need to do the following: Meet \u2018Renna\u2019 at the start of the game to receive the spirit caller bell. – Defeat Rennala at the Liurnia Academy and make your way north to Caria Manor. – Defeat Royal Knight Loretta (first encounter) and travel to the Three Sisters region of Liurnia. – Meet Ranni at Ranni\u2019s Rise and enter her service. You can do this by helping Rogier or by killing Radahn and freeing the stars from his control. – Find the entrance to the Eternal City of Nokron in Limgrave. – While in Nokron defeat the Mimic Tear. – Then find the Fingerslayer Blade in the Night\u2019s Sacred Ground. – Return this to Ranni in exchange for the Carian Inverted Statue. – Use this on the altar at the Divine Tower of Liurnia. Defeat the wizard and retrieve the Cursemark of Death. – Now use the portal at Renna\u2019s Rise to enter Nokstrella – Pick up the miniature Ranni doll and talk to it 3 times at the Site of Grace. – Defeat the Baleful Shadow for Ranni. – Talk to Ranni and she\u2019ll give you the Discarded Palace Key. This opens the chest by Rennala in the Raya Lucaria Library. Open the chest to find the Dark Moon Ring. – The ring will allow you to travel to the Ainsel River and from here, the Lake of Rot. Travel across this to the Grand Cloister and enter the coffin on the cliff. – Defeat Astel, Naturalborn of the Void to travel to the Cathedral of Manus Celes (a name that will intrigue Dark Souls fans). – Jump down the hole to find Ranni\u2019s body and put the Dark Moon Ring on her finger. – Ranni will now be revived and will consider you her consort and champion. She\u2019ll then encourage you to follow the path to becoming Elden Lord, so at this point, follow the steps in the guide for the default ending \u2013 or return to Fia and give the Cursemark of Death to her instead. It\u2019s worth noting that you can still finish Fia\u2019s quest and still choose to side with Ranni at the end, so feel free to complete both quests. You can also complete Dung Eater and Goldmask\u2019s quests without any problems either. When you get to the Elden Ring, select the \u2018Age of Stars ending\u2019 and enjoy the show! On the surface, Ranni\u2019s ending looks like a happy Hollywood wrap-up. You\u2019re the new power couple in The Lands Between and the old Gods are gone. You\u2019re Elden Lord, she\u2019s your demi-God queen, and the people now have a level of autonomy they never had under Marika. However, before you toast your victory, check on Ranni\u2019s previous allies, Blaidd, Seluvis, and Iji. Each has either gone mad or died in mysterious circumstances. Also, why are there dead Black Knife Assassins nearby each fallen member of Ranni\u2019s council? Didn\u2019t they work for her? How to unlock the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending The Lord of Frenzied Flame is considered the bad ending of Elden Ring, as it sees you become a destructive dictator, consuming the world in the flame of chaos. To unlock it, you\u2019ll need to follow Hyetta\u2019s quest all the way to the Three Fingers and become their champion. Once branded by the Three Fingers you\u2019ll be locked into their ending (unless you go through the steps to undo it), so be sure this is the path you want to take. Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll need to do: After beating Godrick, meet Hyetta on the Lake-Facing Cliffs and give her some Shabriri Grapes. Do this again whenever you encounter her to learn more about the Three Fingers and her quest. – Meet Shabriri near the Zamor Ruins Site of Grace and exhaust his dialog. – Make it to the Subterranean Shunning-Grounds under the Capital City by jumping down the well. – Fight your way to the Cathedral of the Forsaken and beat Morg, the Omen (Not to be confused with the Shard Holder of the same name.) – Activate the pedestal to find a hidden path. – Carefully work your way down to the bottom. – Take off all your gear then approach the door. You need to be naked to do this, apart from your underwear. – Allow the Three Fingers to brand you and become their champion. – Defeat the final boss to become the Lord of Frenzied Flame. – Choosing this path will effectively betray every other faction in Elden Ring, but you can still complete their quests, you just can\u2019t unlock their endings. Becoming the Lord of Frenzied flame will see your character engulfed by the flame, becoming its living embodiment. You\u2019ll then be able to burn the world to ashes and remake it in your image, but beware, Melina won\u2019t take kindly to your betrayal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
