the Ends in Elden Ring form the end of the long journey through the intermediate country.
Your availability after the finals will depend on several different factors. Depending on which side quests you complete and what things you did or missed, the ending sequence may differ.
There is six endings in Elden Ring, three of which unlock a trophy or achievement. The three remaining endings are variations of Ending 1: Age of Shattering.
In the guide to the various endings, we explain the requirements, which things must be fulfilled and how to unlock the endings.
Can you unlock all endings in one go?
It works, but not without a few little tricks. You can set the stage for this by completing all relevant NPC quests (explained below) prior to the final battle against the Eldenbeast before deciding on a final sequence after the final boss.
