Watch out when you're traveling the Lands Between for slap-ready PvP players.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

This years Oscars incident has made its way into Elden Ring. Not content with invading other peoples games to square off in PvP matches, players are now imitating Will Smiths notorious slap.

Several Elden Ring players named Will Smith keep invading other peoples
games, slowly walking up to their opponents, and slapping them across the
face before sauntering away. Afterwards, they disconnect from the game, leaving their opponent to nurse their wounds in a slight state of shock, much as Chris Rock did.

In one Reddit users game, a player called WILL SMITH invaded their session, approached them across a courtyard, swung a single punch, and promptly turned on their heels (thanks, PCGamesN ). It wasnt much of a showdown, but it does show the reach of the Oscars. dude_just_slap_me_and_left from r/Eldenring

Another player this time, simply called Will Smith without the caps pulled the same stunt. They took things a little further, though, by stomping on the ground and unleashing the Trolls Roar battlecry as a final touch. Were guessing they were trying to mimic the tirade that Will Smith launched into after returning to his seat. Good for them; bonus points for accuracy. will_smith_invades from r/Eldenring

Another player captured the opposite side of the joke, showing how they created a character that (kind of) looked like Will Smith, before launching into a duel, punching their opponent, and sitting down for a breather. Their rival wasnt hugely impressed, however, deciding to kill them immediately afterward rather than let the joke do the talking. creating_will_smith_and_the_slap_scenario_in_pvp from r/Eldenring

Over on the Elden Ring subreddit, users have reported running into similar Will-Smith-looking, slap-ready players. There's probably not a high chance you'll see them in your game, but there's at least a possibility.

You can join in on the fun, too. Elden Ring character names arent unique, meaning any number of players can take the Will Smith moniker. You can change your characters name and appearance later in the game upon reaching the Roundtable Hold, if youre desperate to start slapping with your current character.

Will Smith isnt the only notable figure whos been recreated in the game. Another Elden Ring player struck upon a character build that all but turned them into Darth Sidious , complete with a glowing red blade, force lightning, and black robes.
