The thing gamers could most wish for for a massive game like the Elden Ring is more content, as we’re now announcing that there’s already an expansion called Shadow of the Erdtree coming, though FromSoftware’s initial post-launch plans for the title may look very different. .
This is according to FromSoftware insider Lance McDonald, who recently claimed through a Discord server that FromSoftware originally intended to release two Elden Ring expansions as part of the season pass.
The Colosseums’ place, which was added to the game in free post-launch updates, appears to have been originally designed to be part of those two expansions, but FromSoftware eventually decided to focus on developing one larger expansion for the game, similar to what the developer did with 2015’s Bloodborne. .
We don’t know when exactly the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion will be released, but reports have claimed that the expansion has been in development for over a year even though FromSoftware is currently developing Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon, which is scheduled for release in August.
Elden ring was supposed to have 2 DLCs but From soft ended up merging them into one big expansion, has been in the works since at least Jan 2022
