Elden Ring network status check failed error explained

Elden Ring has just been launched and a lot of players are trying to get a taste of the new game. However, some of them are facing the "Network status check failed" error. To clarify, there is nothing that players can do about this error as it is caused due to extensive load over the servers of the game. Elden Ring servers are currently working at the maximum capacity and there is a good chance that players who wish to play the online campaign in the game have to wait. This is similar to what happened with the game Lost Ark, where the players in Europe were not able to enter into the game due to server overload.
