FAQs

Who is the boss in Elden Ring DLC? ›

Technically, you only need to defeat four bosses to beat the entire Elden Ring DLC. They are: Messmer, Romina, Leda (and gang), and Radahn.

How much is the Elden Ring DLC? ›

Those who want Shadow of the Erdtree must either purchase the DLC outright (PS5, Xbox One X, Steam) for $40, though new players can get combo packs of the base game and expansion for a discount. Elden Ring + DLC for PS5 and Xbox One X/S are $80 at Best Buy.

What time will Elden Ring come out? ›

The Elden Ring DLC release time on Xbox and PS5, meanwhile, is a tad easier to explain. For the most part, it's midnight local time on June 21.

How big is Shadow of the Erdtree? ›

For reference, base game is 45GB.

Is Messmer the final boss of the DLC? ›

Because of this, players should first worry about finding as many Scadutree Fragments as possible to get stronger in preparation for the difficult bosses ahead. Messmer The Impaler is the titular boss of the DLC, appearing in just about all the promo material for the DLC.

What time is Elden Ring coming out? ›

For PC players, Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree launches at 3 pm PDT / 11 pm BST on Thursday, June 20. That's 7 am on June 21 in Japan, which is why you've seen FromSoftware focusing on that as the release date. Make no mistake though, Shadow of the Erdtree launches on Thursday evening for a lot of us.

What level should you be for Elden Ring DLC? ›

We recommend you start the Elden Ring DLC at level 120-150, but if you can beat Mohg then you're likely ready for the Shadow Realm. Don't collect any Scadutree Fragments and Revered Spirit Ashes for an extreme challenge. Collect Scadutree Fragments and Revered Spirit Ashes as you see them for a balanced experience.

What bosses will be in Shadow of the Erdtree? ›

  • Shadow of the Erdtree Boss Guides.
  • Divine Beast Dancing Lion Location and Guide.
  • Rellana, Twin Moon Knight Location and Guide.
  • Golden Hippopotamus Location and Guide.
  • Romina, Saint of the Bud Location and Guide.
  • Putrescent Knight Location and Guide.
  • Scadutree Avatar Location and Guide.
  • Commander Gaius Location and Guide.

Is Shadow of the Erdtree longer than Bloodborne? ›

Before this DLC, Bloodborne: The Old Hunters offered the longest FromSoftware DLC experience alongside Dark Souls 3: The Ringed City, both of which took 11 hours to complete fully. But that still doesn't hold a candle to Shadow of the Erdtree's whopping 38 hours.

How much bigger is Shadow of the Erdtree? ›

Shadow of the Erdtree's map size is roughly equivalent to two regions from the base game, like Limgrave (including the Weeping Peninsula) and Altus Plateau , for instance, stacked on top of one another.

What level for Shadow of the Erdtree? ›

So, as I mentioned above, you want to be at least level 150 for Shadow of the Erdtree. That's probably the bare minimum you can get away with if you want even a chance of surviving the Realm of Shadow. If you're not there yet then these Elden Ring Rune farming locations will help you level up faster.

Who is the final fight in the Elden Ring DLC? ›

At the very end of the DLC, players are tasked with fighting Radahn, a returning boss character from Elden Ring's base game. Much like he was in that initial encounter, Radahn is an imposing figure who towers over you and wields weapons so massive that they'd make an NBA player feel small.

Who is the final boss of Shadow of the Erdtree? ›

Promised Consort Radahn proves to be the most demanding boss in the DLC, and probably the whole game. This guide includes a step-by-step walkthrough of unlocking the final area in Shadow of the Erdtree and getting to the boss at the top.

Who is the skeleton boss in Elden Ring DLC? ›

Putrescent Knight is a Legend Boss in Shadow of the Erdtree. Putrescent Knight is a large skeletal knight riding a steed and is found guarding the entrance to St. Trina's cave at the end of Stone Coffin Fissure. This is an optional boss as players don't need to defeat it to advance in Shadow of the Erdtree.

Why is Radahn alive in DLC? ›

Put simply, the reason why General Radahn is alive in the Elden Ring DLC even though we killed him in the base game is because Miquella brought his soul back and used the remains of Mohg, Lord of Blood as a vessel for it (he's the other boss you had to beat as part of the Elden Ring DLC requirements).
