Elden Ring fans will have to wait a bit longer for the game's upcoming expansion, 'Shadow of the Erdtree'. Although a definitive release date has not been announced, FromSoftware assures that development is proceeding smoothly. The expansion is said to include new battles and characters, promising content that may be reminiscent of previous FromSoftware DLC like 'The Old Hunters' for Bloodborne.
Elden Ring, which launched in February 2022, has been a tremendous success. The title has sold over twenty million copies and has frequently been awarded Game of the Year accolades. The game is celebrated for its massive open world and intricate design, encompassing elements of Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro. It has established a new benchmark for the soulslike subgenre with its expansive and daunting game world.
The highly-anticipated PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and PC game is known for its challenging gameplay and immersive experience. While fans eagerly anticipate new content, 'Shadow of the Erdtree', they can remain excited knowing that the same dedication to quality gaming that cemented Elden Ring as a staple in the RPG community is being applied to the expansion.
