According to Redditor, u/JayzRebellion15, he has played Elden Ring for at least a thousand hours and he’s not even done yet. As JayzRebellion15 explains, the game has a 999-hour time limit. This means that the internal clock maxes out at 999:59:59 and the system will not recognize a second more of playtime. In theory, JayzRebellion15 could log in another 999 hours playing Elden Ring and we would not know.
Now, because this is the internet we’re talking about, other Redditors jumped in to do some quick maths. As per the calculation of the more arithmetically-gifted gamers, the enormous playtime imputes that JayzRebellion15 has played Elden Ring for at least 7.35 hours a day since it launched. This pretty much means that JayzRebellion15 dedicates as much time to playing Elden Ring as most people do to work. The good news is that he probably does this for a living. As JayzRebellion15 points out, he’s got a YouTube channel dedicated to Elden Ring, among others. Now that JayzRebellion15 has gone viral for this very specific reason, we hope that Bandai Namco and FromSoftware take notice. Just a few days ago, the publisher gave Let Me Solo Her a commemorative sword for killing Malenia over a thousand times. We don’t know how many times JayzRebellion15 has killed the notoriously difficult Elden Ring boss, but his playtime is an achievement in and of itself. As for Elden Ring, a recent Bandai Namco leak suggests that the open-world action RPG will get a new DLC later this year or early next year. After it sees JayzRebellion15’s playtime, we are sure that FromSoftware will patch its best-selling game to go past the limit.
