An Elden Ring<\/em> exploit is crashing PC players\u2019 games and throwing them into infinite death loops, according to a report from PC Gamer<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

As shown in a video from EldenRingUpdate on Twitter<\/a>, the apparent hack occurs when an invader activates a specific ability, triggering some kind of glitch that causes the host\u2019s game to crash. When the player tries to open the game, they find their character falling to their death over and over again.<\/p>\n

There’s an exploit going around on PC where hackers will corrupt your save file while you’re invaded. <\/p>\n

First they will crash your game, and when you open it back up, your character will be constantly falling to their death… pic.twitter.com\/8et3bl8T1I<\/a><\/p>\n

A user on Reddit<\/a> suggests a possible workaround, but it doesn\u2019t seem to work 100 percent of the time. You can try quitting the game using Alt + F4 just before your character dies, which is supposed to buy you a little bit more time during your next login. When you open the game again, quickly open the map and warp to a site of grace. If you don\u2019t manage to get to a site of grace fast enough, the death loop will start over again. One user on Reddit<\/a> reports losing 100 hours of gameplay, with no luck trying the workaround.<\/p>\n

FromSoftware and Bandai Namco have yet to comment on the situation, but we\u2019ll update this article if we find out any new information. For now, it\u2019s probably best to back up your save files and play offline, as this is the only way to avoid invasions. <\/p>\n

Earlier this year, an exploit in Dark Souls \u2014 <\/em>another title from FromSoftware and Bandai Namco \u2014 left PC players vulnerable to dangerous remote code execution<\/a> attacks. At the time, players were worried that the issue may also affect the not-yet-released Elden Ring<\/em>. Dark Souls<\/em>\u2019 PC servers have been shut down<\/a> since February so developers can fix the issue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
