The only continent that makes up the Midlands of the Elden Ring would not be exactly small. In fact, it would perhaps be a map up to 9 times larger than previously thought.

Considering that Elden Ring’s open world has required much more effort from FromSoftware than previous souls, the possibility would still be there.
