Yes, and it's perhaps one of the best pieces of game design you'll see this year, as I mention in my Elden Ring Review. The player can access this right after the Grafted Scion pummels you, or you beat the odds and kill this boss. All you have to do is jump down a hole, and this will see you start on a looping path which will teach you the basics of combat, stealth and will even see you battle a very easy boss. However, the beauty of this tutorial is, unlike other Souls games, if you don't want to deal with it, you can just not jump down the hole and crack on with the main game.
