While you aren’t able to save the game yourself, it does save automatically, and each save is linked directly to the character you are playing. So that means you are free to create multiple characters with different builds, classes, and weapons. You can have up to 10 different save slots and characters so you can pick and choose who you play as.

How To Create Multiple Save Slots in Elden Ring?

Selecting to start a new game from the menu screen will bring you to the character creator section. It can be a scary feeling to get this far without knowing if making a new character will delete an old save, but fear not. Creating a second, third, or even fourth character will not delete any previously made character. Once you’re finished creating your character, you will enter the world and start a new save with that new character.

Now that you know how to create multiple save files in Elden Ring, are you ready to hop into the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC? If yes, then here’s our guide on how to start the Shadow of Erdtree DLC.
