Elden Ring’s first official expansion is out tomorrow, and to celebrate the DLC’s launch, developer FromSoftware and publisher Bandai Namco released a 3-minute-long trailer for it.

“Witness the birth of a God. The coming of a Lord. And follies better left forgotten. In that forsaken place, blood must spill.”
The Shadow of the Erdtree launches worldwide tomorrow for PC and consoles. Ahead of tomorrow’s release we already published our review, which you can read in full here. Down below we’ve included a short part of it:
After that, it did not take long to get back into the engaging adventuring loop of the Elden Ring experience, searching for map fragments to get a better look at the map, placing markers where points of interest are seemingly located, and getting amazed by beautiful vistas, immense castles, and sprawling haunting forests, unaware of the dangers that lurked inside of them. With open-world fatigue setting in earlier this year due to the many open-world games released in 2024—like Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Rise of the Ronin, and the PC versions of Horizon Forbidden West and Ghost of Tsushima—Shadow of the Erdtree’s open-world design stands out as a testament to how the Elden Ring experience still surpasses anything else on the market. As such, I believe a perfect score is justified, even with the evident lack of significant innovation and some technical hiccups.
