Shadow of the Erdtree takes Elden Ring to new heights

FromSoftware’s latest RPG, Elden Ring, continues to break records as the highly anticipated expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, achieves a staggering five million units sold within just three days of its release.

Building on the success of Elden Ring, the expansion has propelled the game to new heights, solidifying its status as a fan-favorite in the gaming community. The Elden Ring expansion is now hailed as the highest-rated DLC of all time on Metacritic, showcasing the strong appeal and engagement of the game.

However, the road to success has not been entirely smooth for the expansion. FromSoftware recently rolled out Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC update 1.12.2 to address balancing and calibration issues that arose due to player feedback on the expansion’s difficulty level. Additionally, the update aims to fix visual issues on PC that led to performance concerns.

Despite these challenges, FromSoftware remains committed to enhancing the gameplay experience for players. Further balance adjustments and bug fixes are in the works and will be implemented in a future patch. Stay tuned for updates on the release window for these upcoming improvements.
