ELDEN RING Shadow of the Erdtree: Enter the Land of Shadow

Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. and FromSoftware, Inc. have offered the first glimpse of ELDEN RING Shadow of the Erdtree. They have released a new trailer for the expansion, which will be released globally on the 21st of June. And it looks amazing. Let’s just hope we’re all ready for what is to come.

A new land to conquer, a new land to fear

Entering the Shadow of the Erdtree looks genuinely terrifying. New beasts, new abominations and an awakened Miquella. That’s right folks, the brother of Malenia, possibly the most powerful being in all of The Lands Between.

“The Land of Shadow.
A place obscured by the Erdtree.
Where the goddess Marika first set foot.
A land purged in an unsung battle.
Set ablaze by Messmer’s flame.
It was to this land that Miquella departed.
Divesting himself of his flesh, his strength, his lineage.
Of all things Golden.
And now Miquella awaits
the return of his promised Lord”

The first look at the expansion comes two years after ELDEN RING — the world created by FromSoftware director Hidetaka Miyazaki and George R. R. Martin, author of the masterpiece fantasy series “A Song of Ice and Fire” — released to broad critical acclaim, having won numerous prestigious awards around the world, including Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2022, Golden Joystick Award 2022, 26th D.I.C.E. Awards, and the 2023 Game Developers Choice Awards, and many other distinctions.

In ELDEN RING Shadow of the Erdtree players will step into the Land of Shadow to explore a new adventure full of mysteries and danger, to confront threatening bosses with new weapons and armour. Follow in the footsteps of Miquella and unravel the dark side of the ELDEN RING story.

ELDEN RING Shadow of the Erdtree will be available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam. Pre-orders are now available for all platforms, including special bundles that include the base game, which is required to play the expansion.
