Now Playing: Quickest Ways to Get Ready For Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC
Elden Ring’s first expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, releases on June 21 for $40. It is a meaty expansion, taking players to the Land of Shadow and introducing 10 new bosses to defeat. Players must reach a certain part of the game to access the DLC, and a good percentage of PC users have not done this yet.
Elden Ring’s overall sales numbers are expected to grow with the expansion’s launch, as Bandai Namco is also releasing a bundle that includes the base game and the expansion for $80. There is also a deluxe edition of the bundle with other extras for $100.
Developed by From Software, Elden Ring may become more than a game and jump into other areas in the future. Many are wondering if From Software might release a sequel, and that remains to be seen.
