The forthcoming release of the Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree expansion is gaining traction in the advertising campaign. The exposition of the add-on at the 2024 South Korean PlayX4 exhibition by Bandai Namco has led to the public release of some presentation screenshots.
At the PlayX4 2024, a user of the South Korean Ruliweb forum shared some photos from the event revealing previously unseen screenshots of Shadow of the Erdtree.
The leak originator pointed out a closed event scheduled for the coming weekend for Shadow of the Erdtree. This event was promoted at the exhibition, inviting many journalists and bloggers, therefore, new details (or leaks) about the add-on are expected soon.

The pictures do not spoil the Shadow of the Erdtree plot, but showcase locations for players to explore in the add-on. Some areas could be glimpsed in the gameplay trailer released in February.
Leak features a toxic swamp site, green-covered ruins, a field with glowing flowers and a dungeon with a bridge over an abyss. The variety of zones has amazed players. This_is_my_jam from Reddit stated, “I would believe this is Elden Ring 2”.
