Cover-Credits:
Elden Ring fans have been craving DLC content ever since the game's release and players have been looking for news about a potential DLC release date for weeks. With the game's second anniversary approaching soon, Steam's backend was updated with a potential DLC listing but it turns out that we are still far off from getting any new content.
FromSoftware Parent Company Squashes Hopes and Dreams of Millions of Soulsborne Games
FromSoftware's parents companies announced in its financial report that that the developers are still working on the DLC. With just ten days to go until the second anniversary of the game, it is extremely unlikely that an announcement will be made about the game's release soon.
We can expect an announcement about the game's future content updates on 25th February but players shouldn't expect any new content. Until any further development, we can only stare at the "YOU DIED" screen to bide time.
Possible Content in The Upcoming Elden Ring DLC
New Areas: Rumors suggest exploring undiscovered regions like the mysterious cloud between Divine Towers or the Badlands.
New Story Content: The DLC might delve deeper into the Shattering, the Night of the Black Knives, or the history of Queen Marika and the Greater Will.
New Bosses: There are rumors at up to 30 new bosses, likely offering challenging encounters.
Dream Exploration: Cut content involving dreams of certain NPCs might be reintroduced, allowing players to fight literal nightmares.
Extended Endings: Rumors suggest the DLC could expand upon the existing endings or offer new ones altogether.
We advise you to take these leaks with a massive grain of salt. They are very likely just made-up reports that bear no weight. While it is fun to speculate what we could get in future updates, you should temper your expectations and wait for an official announcement.
Armored Core VI may also get some new content in the near future. But the financial report did not mention any new or upcoming projects from FromSoftware so we are far away from an Elden Ring 2 or Dark Souls 4 announcement.
