  MORFEO (Multi-conjugate adaptive Optics Relay For ELT Observations, formerly
MAORY), the MCAO system for the ELT, will provide diffraction-limited optical
quality to the large field camera MICADO. MORFEO has officially passed the
Preliminary Design Review and it is entering the final design phase. We present
the current status of the project, with a focus on the adaptive optics system
aspects and expected milestones during the next project phase.
