Gestures in Elden Ring are a fun way to communicate with other players, whether you're co-oping with a friend or just messing around. They can also be used to solve certain puzzles or trigger events in the world. But how do you actually do them?

To gesture in Elden Ring, you need to open the main menu, navigate to the right side of the screen where your character's gestures are listed, and select the one you want to use. It's a pretty straightforward process once you know where to look.

How to Gesture on Each Platform

Here's a breakdown of how to gesture on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC:

PlayStation:

1. Press the "Options" button to open the main menu.

2. Use the D-pad to navigate to the right side of the screen.

3. Select the gesture you want to use with the "X" button.

Xbox:

1. Press the "Menu" button to open the main menu.

2. Use the D-pad to navigate to the right side of the screen.

3. Select the gesture you want to use with the "A" button.

PC:

1. Press the "Esc" key to open the main menu.

2. Use the arrow keys or your mouse to navigate to the right side of the screen.

3. Click on the gesture you want to use.

I remember the first time I figured out how to gesture. I was playing with a friend, and we had just defeated a tough boss. I wanted to celebrate, but I didn't know how to do the "Praise the Sun" gesture. After a few minutes of fumbling through the menus, I finally found it. We both had a good laugh, and it's a memory that has stuck with me. It’s a small thing, but those little interactions are part of what makes the game so special.

You can also equip up to six gestures for quick use. To do this, simply highlight the gesture you want to equip and press the corresponding button to assign it to a slot. This is super handy for when you need to quickly communicate with other players, especially in the heat of battle. I have my favorite gestures, like "Wave" and "Point," equipped for easy access. It makes coordinating with my friends a lot easier when we're exploring a new area or taking on a boss.
