Age of Fracture ending.

This is the normal ending to the game, you need to select ‘Mend the Elden Ring’ to unlock this ending and become the Elden Lord.

Age of Duskborn ending

In addition to the normal version of the Age of Fracture ending, there are three variations, each one requiring a different ‘Mending’ Great Rune. You can choose to use a Mending Rune as the final option after you defeat the last boss, which will unlock a variant ending.

The Age of Duskborn alternate ending is unlocked by using the Mending Rune of the Death Prince. You get this Great Rune by completing Fia’s questline; you still begin the new age as Elden Lord, but the Lands Between loses the curse of immortality as the Rune of Death has been restored.

Blessing of Despair ending.

The Blessing of Despair alternate ending is unlocked by using the Mending Rune of the Fell Curse. You also begin the new age as Elden Lord, but you use the rune on Marika and watch on as the Lands Between is taken over by a curse. This isn’t a great ending, but if you really want to curse the already cursed world, then you need to complete the Dung Eater quest line.

Age of Order ending

The Age of Order alternate ending is unlocked by using the Mending Rune of Perfect Order, obtained by completing Goldmask and Brother Corhyn’s questline. This is a simple yet satisfying ending, as you restore order to the Lands Between while also starting the new age as Elden Lord, sitting on your golden throne enjoying some well-deserved peace.

Lord of the Frenzied Flame ending

You do not want this ending unless you want to become the Lord of the Frenzied Flame and burn the world to a crisp – we won’t judge you (much). To unlock this ending you need to meet with the Three Fingers by entering the door of the Frenzied Flame.

This allows Ranni to become a God and replace Marika. You’ll become Ranni’s consort and ascend with her to the cosmos to free the lost souls trapped by the Erdtree.
