Marco Caracciolo, member of the ICLA theory committee, has written the book On Soulsring Worlds: Narrative Complexity, Digital Communities, and Interpretation in Dark Souls and Elden Ring. Published by Routledge, this is the first book-length study of FromSoftware games. Arguing that the games are strategically positioned in relation to contemporary audiences and designed to tap into the new digital forms of interpretation, Caracciolo studies the games in the contexts of the posthuman condition and the ethics of gameplay.
