Elden Ring developer FromSoftware has confirmed plans to release the first gameplay trailer for the upcoming Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. The Elden Ring DLC trailer will be broadcast live at 3pm GMT UK time on February 21. You can watch the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC gameplay trailer below. Running for approximately three minutes, the gameplay trailer is expected to conclude with a release date announcement for the Elden Ring DLC. According to recent leaks, the DLC will launch this summer.
Indeed, a new report by industry insider billbil-kun suggests the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion will have a June 21 release date on PlayStation, Xbox and PC.
Shadow of the Erdtree will reportedly launch alongside a Game of the Year physical edition, containing both the base game and DLC.
Likewise, publisher Bandai Namco will reportedly launch a Collector’s Edition, which will include a host of extras.
“The first trailer for ELDEN RING Shadow of the Erdtree will be revealed in 16 hours. Join us at 15:00 UTC,” reads a FromSoftware tweet.
“This presentation will be 3 minutes long. Language subtitles will be available. Please use the YouTube caption tool to select your preferred language.”
Recent reports suggest that the hugely anticipated Shadow of the Erdtree expansion is in the final stages of testing. That’s based on updates to its SteamDB page, which added various QA testing tags.
Elden Ring producer Yasuhiro Kitao previously confirmed that the expansion wouldn’t be available until the next fiscal year, which begins in April.
Based on Kitao’s comments and updates to the game’s SteamDB listing, there’s a good chance Shadow of the Erdtree could make its debut this April.
Shadow of the Erdtree will reportedly be followed by a second expansion launching in 2025.
