The fact that Elden Ring is being a sales success does not mean that there is a large part of the players who miss certain functions in the From Software title, being so the request for a pause mode It is something that has been requested not from this title, but from all the previous ones that have had a great impact.
Be that as it may, the truth is that today From Software continues with its trend of not adding this function, which has led to many look for alternatives in the modsthis being the only option that, for better or worse, is only available on PC, leaving out consoles as well as posing a risk of banning or any other punishment.
Despite all that has been said, it seems that a user has found a kind of pause modewhich doesn’t actually apply this function, but does achieve the same effect.
It has been the youtuber Iron Pineapple who has discovered this method, as you can see in the tweet below these lines. The method to follow would be (during a fight in which we cannot open the map), open the start menu, access the team, press Help and select Explanation Menu, thus achieving the desired effect, since, as you can find out, enemies do not move or attack us. You can see the video in question below:
guess what, Elden Ring DOES have a pause button
just open “Menu Explanation” while on the inventory screen

Obviously it is a method that fulfills its mission without the need to use mods, but the truth is that far from idealsince the fact of having to press several buttons can lead to kill us before we even make itso it would be necessary to calculate quite well when to carry it out.
Be that as it may, we have no choice but to wait to see if in the future From Software relentssince it is something that they have not only shown interest in, but part of the community says that it should never be added because weighs down the Dark Souls experience.
For the rest, it only remains to say that, being a resounding sales success, Elden Ring has been with us for almost two weeks since its launch on February 25. The From Software title is available on PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S and PC.
