Look for the markers

It’s launch dayin some regions forElden Ring, so we figured it was time for some broad non-spoilery tips to help people out. One of them includes a really useful way to light up theElden Ringmap.

By default, the entire map is protected by a fog of war, which obfuscates points of interest. While you need to actually go to a location to get the checkpoint/fast travel point, you can see clearly on the map, via illustrations, that an area might have something there.
