However, a Reddit user by the name of Blue_Affinity has exposed the leak as a fake. The user posted several hours ago in the Elden Ring subreddit with a link to an artist’s portfolio. The artist in question was Jack Phan, a 3D Concept Artist who initially posted the “trailer” as a thesis presentation inspired by FromSoftware’s Souls series. Phan did all the modelling, texturing, and lighting work featured in the piece. It is uncertain where the claims that the video was an Elden Ring leak originated, but the artist has stated that he is "flattered" people were convinced it was genuine.
