Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree expansion unveiled

Elden Ring's "Shadow of the Erdtree" expansion releasing June 21 - face challenges more formidable than ever before.

As an enthusiast of the critically acclaimed game Elden Ring, brace yourself for an enthralling update. The game’s developers have released the first trailer for the eagerly awaited expansion, “Shadow of the Erdtree,” set to launch on June 21. This expansion is poised to take you back to the enigmatic and vast world of the Lands Between.

Journey back to the Lands Between

“Shadow of the Erdtree” was first announced in February, sparking excitement and speculation among the gaming community. FromSoftware, renowned for its 2022 Game of the Year creation, has been sparing with details about this DLC. However, the release of this new trailer has ended the long wait, offering glimpses into what lies ahead.

Central to this expansion is the character of Miquella of the Haligtree. This character, a demigod known as an Empyrean and the twin brother of the fearsome Malenia, was only hinted at in the original game. Miquella was teased during the battle against Mohg, trapped in an egg sac. But now, the new teaser showcases Miquella in his full strength, suggesting that your challenges may surpass those encountered with Malenia.
