How To Pause Elden Ring Without Mods
Elden Ring has been one of the greatest games released in recent years, but the game lacks one of the fundamental things in a game, which is a pause button. This absence of a pause button has been a staple in almost all of FromSoftware’s Souls-like games, except for Sekiro, and it has come out as quite a hinderance for players.
However, there is a way to pause the game without using mods or a third-party software. This method isn’t a traditional pause button, but it functions similarly. Here’s how you can do it in four easy steps:
Open the in-game menu:
-
- Press the designated button to bring up the game’s menu.
Navigate to the Equipment screen:
-
- Select the ‘Equipment’ option from the menu.
Press the help key:
-
- On your keyboard or controller, press the key/button indicated at the bottom for ‘Help’.
Select Menu Explanation:
-
- Click on ‘Menu Explanation’. You will notice that the game has frozen in the background, effectively pausing it.
The above step will lead you to the screen below. Your game will remain paused as long as you are on the Menu Explanation page. Once you exit this page, the game will resume from the exact moment you paused it.
For those who prefer a more straightforward method, there is a “Pause The Game” mod available on NexusMods, which allows you to pause the game with a single key press.
We all encounter moments where real-life responsibilities interrupt our gaming sessions. This guide provides a simple way to pause Elden Ring without disrupting your experience. We hope this helps you on your journey, and we look forward to assisting more players in the future.
