After nearly a year of anticipation, fans of the open-world fantasy RPG Elden Ring have received exciting news: the debut trailer for the ambitious Shadow of the Erdtree expansion is imminent.
Bandai Namco, the publishers, along with developers FromSoftware, announced their plans to showcase Shadow of the Erdtree in the official Elden Ring microblog – the first announcement since the add-on was revealed in February last year. Source
The debut gameplay trailer for Shadow of the Erdtree is scheduled to premiere at 18:00 Moscow time on 21st February. The trailer will run for three minutes.
The trailer will be released on YouTube (trailer player attached below), where it will be subtitled in various languages. Based on previous Elden Ring showcases, we can expect Russian subtitles as well.
French insider Billbil-kun, known for his accurate predictions, revealed that Shadow of the Erdtree will only be released on 21 June of this year.
This conclusion was achieved based on the fact that two new retail editions of Elden Ring containing Shadow of the Erdtree are supposedly set to debut on June 21: a full (Game of the Year Edition) for €80 and a collector’s edition for €250.
The Shadow of the Erdtree is being developed for various platforms including PC (Steam), PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and S. As per FromSoftware, the development of the ambitious expansion is “progressing smoothly,” yet fans “will have to wait a little longer.”
