With the recent launch of Elden Ring Nightreign bringing a new co-op spin on FromSoftware’s popular action RPG, some fans may be looking to revisit the setting of the original Elden Ring, the Lands Between. Luckily, a new volume of the official Elden Ring manga, The Road to the Erdtree Vol. 5, recently launched and is discounted to just $10.30 for a limited time. If you’re already caught up, you can also preorder Volume 6 (releases July 22) and Volume 7 (releases October 28) for $13 apiece at Amazon–or, if you’re new to the series and looking to start from the beginning, you can also grab the first four volumes, all of which are discounted at Amazon.
While Elden Ring: The Road to the Erdtree is set in the same dark fantasy world and features many of the same characters as the video game, it’s also a more humorous take on the epic adventure, following a lone Tarnished named Aseo on a quest to become Elden Lord.
