The long-awaited Elden Ring DLC trailer disclose really did not dissatisfy, lastly validating the Shadow of the Erdtree launch day. The June 21 launch will certainly bring hills of brand-new material to the Lands Between, with Shadow of the Erdtree looking even more like a mini-sequel than anything – and with a $40 cost to match.
Pre-orders for Shadow of the Erdtree are real-time currently on all systems, and at $39.99 this DLC is requesting a complete two-thirds of the main going price of the base RPG. There’s also a $49.99 “premium bundle” with the electronic artbook and soundtrack.
Granted, you can normally locate physical duplicates of Elden Ring for $40 or $50 on PlayStation and Xbox, yet also after that, $40 is quite significant for DLC. I’m not grumbling, obviously, and I’m ready to wager that several Elden Ring followers would certainly, readily, take a bank loan to cover the cost of this point if they required to.
The Steam page for Shadow of the Erdtree significantly calls it an “expansion,” not a DLC (though it is, obviously, classified as DLC on Steam). It’s a tiny yet intriguing difference that appears to show the range of the important things. Here’s the complete blurb for referral:
“The Shadow of the Erdtree expansion features an all-new story set in the Land of Shadow imbued with mystery, perilous dungeons, and new enemies, weapons and equipment. Discover uncharted territories, face formidable adversaries, and revel in the satisfying triumph of victory. Dive into the riveting interplay of characters, where drama and intrigue intertwine, that create an immersive experience to savor and enjoy.”
One huge inquiry is whether this development will certainly include a brand new map – as there are plainly several brand-new locations – or maybe a various period of the Lands Between, with brand-new material woven in through time traveling roguishness or a few other tradition nugget. I’m additionally asking yourself if that $40 cost matches the range of the material one-to-one – that is to state, will Shadows of the Erdtree supply 66% even more Elden Ring? We can just wish.
The Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Collector’s Edition is €250 and includes 18 inches of Messmer.
