Shadow of the Erdtree will be the first and the last DLC for Elden Ring

It’s officially confirmed now that "Shadow of the Erdtree" will be the sole expansion for Elden Ring, the world-favorite role-playing game. Scheduled for release on June 20th, this add-on seeks to deepen the game's lore and ramp up challenges with Lands of Shadow, bringing closure to the DLC narrative for the 2022 title. Despite the studio's track record of releasing multiple expansions for their previous games, the director has emphasized that this will be a single, conclusive expansion for Elden Ring.

 

Potential Horizons: A New Game, Not Just DLC

While the DLC chapter may be the end, Miyazaki has dropped hints about the potential for new games set in Elden Ring's universe, rather than just more DLC. This strategy aligns with FromSoftware's game development philosophy, which often embraces expansive narratives that could extend beyond a single game. Miyazaki's comments have left fans hopeful, suggesting that the studio might continue to explore new stories in The Lands Between, although he has not yet confirmed any plans for a new Elden Ring title.

 

Elden Ring as a Budding Franchise

The future of Elden Ring could extend far beyond gaming, as hinted by publisher Bandai Namco in 2022, who declared Elden Ring the start of a much larger franchise. This statement opens up exciting possibilities for expansions into other media, such as films, books, or even anime. However, the details of these developments, including how and when they will materialize, are still under wraps, leaving fans eagerly anticipating the next phase of Elden Ring's vast universe.
