To mark the launch of Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree , VGP Play in collaboration with Trust Gaming GXT presents the documentary “Birth of a Sword” , a journey that takes us to discover how the legendary swords of Toledo are forged and their connection to the blades featured in FromSoftware’s game.
