Shadow of the Erdtree was first announced back in February this year. It’s a major DLC expansion coming to the award-winning ARPG from FromSoftware, and it expands the game with a new storyline. Shadow of the Erdtree’s release date is quickly approaching, and it’ll be here before you know it. If you are wondering when the Elden Ring DLC comes out, then you’ve landed on the right page.
When does Elden Ring DLC release?
Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is scheduled to release on June 21, 2024. FromSoftware hasn’t confirmed the exact release time for the game, but you can expect it to drop at midnight, similar to the base game. The timer embedded above is counting down to June 21, 12 AM EST.
Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree, in case you are wondering, will be available on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and the PlayStation 5. Notably, it’ll also be playable on the Xbox One and PS4, so those with an older generation console don’t have to worry about missing out on the DLC.
The Elden Ring DLC is already getting a lot of praise from the critics who got early access to the game. Some are even calling it the “best expansion of the decade.” It’s FromSoftware’s biggest expansion ever, and it certainly looks very promising even though it doesn’t have any input from George R. R. Martin. FromSoftware’s ambitions definitely reflect on the game’s price tag, making it one of the priciest expansions ever costing $39.99.
As far as the in-game content is concerned, the Elden Ring DLC will add 10 new boss fights, eight new categories of weapons, new armor, spells, Ashes of War, and more to the game when it comes out later this month. FromSoftware hasn’t shared any playtime details, but I’m expecting it to be at least a 30-hour experience.
