Given the growing significance of The Game Awards and the ties FromSoftware has to the show, there's potential for the debut Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC trailer appear in the show next week. Although, should that happen, you probably shouldn't expect a release date to appear at the end of it. Speaking at the PlayStation Partner Awards, it's said the expansion is still "a little ways off".
When asked about the development of Shadow of the Erdtree, Yasuhiro Kitao said: "I will talk about DLC another time. It's still a little ways off, but progress is going well. Like Bloodborne, it has new battles and new characters. Please look forward to new things."
The expansion itself was announced rather unceremoniously in a tweet at the start of this year with just a piece of key art attached. "Rise, Tarnished, and let us walk a new path together," the post read. "An upcoming expansion for ELDEN RING Shadow of the Erdtree, is currently in development. We hope you look forward to new adventures in the Lands Between." If a trailer does debut next week, it'll be the first time we've seen the DLC actually in motion. Given how long it took the base game to be re-revealed after its initial announcement, though, this is par for the course for FromSoftware.

Excited about this. Really dug the Dark Souls 3 expansion.
They should take as much time as they need
If it is thats cool.if not theres a lot of games coming.the dlc is definitely coming so now im just playing my huge backlogs of games.and im chilling.word up son
DLC coming 2 years after the release is kind of a bummer.
@PenguinLtd Malenia was optional though tbf.
I think there is no pressure to release DLC because Elden Ring was a huge success so no rush FS and release when you are ready.
I´m about 150hrs in now and fighting through Crumbling Farum Azula...just yesterday defeated Godskin Duo so still some boss fights ahead for main story to be finished plus saving Malenia fight after main story is completed. Until then, maybe DLC comes out
@Athrum at least it’s from soft and we know what to expect. Tales of Arise dlc being standalone two years after launch was definitely not welcome for me. Especially at 40 bucks (CAD).
@Athrum I completely agree. I'd rather them spend those resources making a proper sequel or something else entirely
Got the platinum for this a few months ago, really awesome game so I can't wait for this. Bloodborne is my only other current platinum, though I am close to getting Dark Souls Remastered added to that list. Hope to get 2 & 3 finished before summer.
All I saw was the word Bloodborne.
