The Shadow of the Erdtree DLC for Elden Ring may release in early 2024

A page for Elden Ring X Thrustmaster collab mentions "sync with new 'SHADOW OF THE ERDTREE' Expansion release - Elden Ring Anniversary/February 2024" and also a "major keybeat or new game expansion in 2025" byu/ChiefLeef22 inGamingLeaksAndRumours

As detailed in the Reddit post above, Elden Ring is all set to receive not one but two expansions, starting from early 2024. The Shadow of the Erdtree is rumored to release sometime in February 2024, while a yet unnamed “major keybeat or new game expansion” is expected to be made available in 2025.

The details come courtesy of Reddit user u/ChiefLeef22, who first noticed a listing of the Thrustmaster X Elden Ring collaboration on the DatatBlitz website. The collaboration contains a total of three special, limited-edition controllers. The controller designs include:

• Eswap X 2 Elden Ring (Generic) Limited Edition controller for Shadow of the Erdtree
• Malenia Character controller for the unnamed 2025 expansion
• Ranni Character controller for the same 2025 expansion

These collaboration items are expected to officially be made available soon. Interestingly, the webpage has since been taken down, but you can find a cached version of the webpage in the same Reddit post above for reference.

The unusual timing and subsequent takedown of the announcement does seem rather strange, making the possibility of a February 2024 release all the more believable.

Keep in mind that the information above is presented via third-party sources and, as such, is subject to change. Rumors regarding the release of Shadow of the Erdtree have been proven to be false in the past, but this particular post seems rather compelling.
