Will Elden Ring get another DLC?
Most likely not. Shadow of the Erdtree, released in June 2024, is the only story expansion FromSoftware made for Elden Ring, and director Hidetaka Miyazaki said it was meant to be the first and last DLC. The studio has since moved on to other projects, including Elden Ring Nightreign, a standalone co-op spin-off released in 2025.
What is Shadow of the Erdtree?
A large expansion set in the Land of Shadow. It adds a new map, dozens of bosses, new weapons and spells, and its own upgrade system using Scadutree Fragments and Revered Spirit Ash.
How to get it
- Own the base game on PC, PlayStation 4/5 or Xbox One/Series X|S.
- Buy Shadow of the Erdtree on the same store, or a bundle that includes it.
- Reach the DLC by defeating Starscourge Radahn and Mohg, Lord of Blood, then touching the withered arm in Mohg's arena.
Is Elden Ring 2 coming?
FromSoftware has not announced a numbered sequel. Nightreign is a separate game set in the same world, not a sequel or an expansion.
FAQ
Does the DLC add new endings?
No. Shadow of the Erdtree has its own final boss, but it does not change the base game's endings.
Who is the final boss of Shadow of the Erdtree?
Promised Consort Radahn, whom you fight at the end of the main path through the Land of Shadow.
Who is harder, Radahn or Malenia?
Many players rank the DLC's Promised Consort Radahn as harder, especially before the balance patch, but Malenia remains the toughest fight in the base game for many.
How long does it take to 100% Elden Ring?
Expect well over 100 hours for the base game alone, and more with the expansion.
