Well, if the devs won\u2019t, fortunately, someone else will, and as such we now know where the expansion is at. Progress on Elden Ring\u2019s DLC is \u201cproceeding smoothly,\u201d according to FromSoftware\u2019s parent company Kadokawa. The update was shared within an earnings report for the company on Nov. 2, however, it was joined by the crushing news there still is no release date for the highly-anticipated Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. It\u2019s been nine long months since the upcoming DLC was revealed and while we have had radio silence on that front, fortunately, there have been quite a few Soulslike titles to tide things over. These will have to continue to suffice as \u201cproceeding smoothly\u201d doesn\u2019t give any indication of when the content slumber will end for Elden Ring. Since launch, Elden Ring has had some new additions made. Notably, the December 2022 update brought a Colosseum battle location to the map where Tarnished can test their battle skills against each other. Something else that Elden Ring benefits from is the massive scale of the game and customization options that mean you can do many playthroughs and experience a different route each time. Still, we understand this isn\u2019t the same as a new story chapter. If you\u2019re desperate for Souls action while you wait for Shadow of the Erdtree then perhaps Lies of P or Lords of the Fallen can fill that void, but for those who only want a taste of the real thing, we will keep you posted when release date info surfaces online. For now, Elden Ring fans will have to wait with the confidence of knowing that the development process is going smoothly\u2014let's hope this means a smooth launch in 2024.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/28090705\/Elden-Ring-Items.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1017970"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1837"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1017970"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1017970\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1017975,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1017970\/revisions\/1017975"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/583195"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1017970"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1017970"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1017970"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1017970"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1017970"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1017970"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1017970"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
