The massive Elden Ring DLC expansion, Shadow Of The Erdtree is almost upon us. FromSoftware’s gargantuan new release is being described by some early reviewers as basically a sequel, much more vast than anyone expected.
I did not receive a review code for the DLC, so I’m jumping in blind with everyone else. And like everyone else, I’m eager to know everything there is to know about the game, starting with when I can get my grubby paws on it and return to The Lands Between and the new Shadowlands area.
The new expansion not only adds a huge new area to explore for players level 130-150, it adds new armor sets, weapons, 10 new Boss Fights and a gripping new story, plus much more. I’ll be playing and writing up my thoughts (and helpful guides) here on this blog.
The DLC will be around 16GB to download, and you should be able to preload that now. It launches at 9pm PDT on June 20th and midnight EDT June 21st. Here are the start-times for all regions across the globe:
