Last February, Bandai Namco And FromSoftware hit hard by formalizing an extension for the GOTY 2022 what is Elden Ring. A unique visual and a name, Shadow of the Erdtree Or The Shadow of the World Tree in French, that’s all we had to get our teeth into. Nothing could be more normal, since it is Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon who was in the spotlight in the following months. During the financial statement of the studio’s parent company (Kadokawa) last May, the DLC was not mentioned for release during the current fiscal year, leading one to believe that it would not be released by March 31, 2024. At the start of the month, during PlayStation Awards 2023producer Yasuhiro Kitao mentioned the fact that development was going well, without further details. Well, here is just one leak quite serious reveals to us a priori the release period of this content, but not only.
According to a post on Reddit and visuals since deleted, but reshared by Wario64, a collaboration between Bandai Namco And Thrustmaster for controllers in Elden Ring colors should see the light of day. Where it gets interesting is that the golden ESWAP X 2 Elden Ring “Generic” Limited Edition pad would see the light of day in February 2024 for a launch synchronized with the expansion Shadow of the Erdtree and the anniversary of the game, released as a reminder on February 25, 2022. Yes, The Shadow of the World Tree could therefore be available in two months!
But wait, that’s not all. Two other potential limited edition controllers in red and blue in the colors of Malenia And Ranni would be considered for the year 2025. In addition to the appearances which would not necessarily be the final designs, it is mentioned thatthey would come out with a next expansion, or even a major release in the Elden Ring universe. Yes, this means that FromSoftware would therefore plan a second big DLC or even an Elden Ring 2 for 2025.
Below are the full screenshots of the site DataBlitzagain posted on Redditwhich displayed the accessories and whose the page is no longer accessible.
Faced with so much evidence, it’s hard not to believe it. It remains to be seen whether the information communicated by this brand is accurate.
Knowing that the world premiere of the concert Elden Ring Symphonic Adventure will take place next month in Paris, would it be possible that the announcement of the release date of The Shadow of the World Tree be unveiled there with great fanfare? This would certainly be a great gift for the fans present on site.
You can get Elden Ring on Amazon from €34.90 or €53.99 on PC at the house of Gamesplanet.
