Elden Ring is now available on PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox. Unfortunately, the game is limited to 60FPS on both PC and consoles. However, PC users have a solution: an experimental Elden Ring FPS unlocker mod.
This mod unlocks the frame rate by patching the memory, so it’s recommended to use it only in offline mode with Easy Anti-Cheat disabled.
