Despite the lack of concrete information, it seems like the Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree expansion will launch in February, according to a recent discovery.
As reported on the Gaming Leaks and Rumors subreddit, manufacturer Thrustmaster is about to release a new limited-edition controller based on the popular game by FromSoftware as part of a collaboration with Bandai Namco, according to a document found on the website of online retailer Data Blitz. What makes this document extremely interesting are the mention of the controller launching together with the DLC expansion, whose launch will coincide with the base game's anniversary, and the possibility of another DLC expansion in 2025, or another "major keybeat," as the leaked presentation also features designs for controllers based on Malenia and Ranni.
While all this could be an elaborate hoax, there's a very good chance all of it is real, as the leaked images detailing the controllers and their release window have been promptly removed. Every re-upload is getting down very quickly as well. Still, we have to take everything with a grain of salt until an official release date is announced for the highly anticipated DLC expansion.
Elden Ring is now available on PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One worldwide. You can learn more about one of the best open-world games released in recent times by checking out my review.
