There have been recent rumors that it could be released in early 2024. However, these have been denied by FromSoftware producer Yasuhiro Kitao. He explained that while the project is progressing well, there is still a lot to be done. Therefore, we are now expecting a minimum waiting time of 2.5 years after the main game's release in February 2022.

Despite the long wait, there is already some exciting information about the DLC. In a teaser, we saw Miquella riding on Torrent and the Erdtree charred and melted. This suggests that the DLC takes place after the events of the main game.

Possible Awards

Even though it is a DLC, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree could potentially win some awards. Major expansions can qualify for awards like the Game Awards. For example, the Cyberpunk 2077 expansion Phantom Liberty was nominated for Best Narrative and Best Performance.
