Elden Ring DLC Shadow of the Erdtree release date has been leaked

FromSoftware tweeted yesterday that we will see gameplay of the long-awaited Elden Ring DLC "Shadow of the Erdtree" at 3 PM GMT today. In addition to this news, it seems reliable leaker billbil-kun of French magazine Dealabs has found some details regarding the DLC that indicate the DLC will be dropping on June 21st.

According to billbil-kun there will be some new editions of Elden Ring that will include the DLC with both a game of the year and a collector's edition. The article states these versions of the game will be released on June 21st thus the information leaked that this is when the DLC will be available to play.

• Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree Game of the Year edition which includes a copy of Elden Ring and the DLC included. This will be available as a physical copy for both PS5 and Xbox Series X and will cost €79.99. We'd expect that to be £69.99 in the UK
• Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree Collector's Edition which will include the DLC, a copy of Elden Ring and some extra physical goodies. This will be available for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X and apparently will cost €259.99 which means for the UK we could expect this to be around £249.99. It could be less though in all honestly with the original Elden Ring Collector's Edition costing £179.99 but we will see.

It's hard to judge from this how much the DLC is going to cost on its own but anywhere from the £30-40 mark would make sense. I can see Shadow of the Erdtree being a very expansive DLC and some of FromSoftware's best works have been through their DLCs. 

We have no reason to doubt billbil-kun regarding this leak due to providing accurate information in the past and we may even get confirmation later with the gameplay trailer that could perhaps include the release date. We can't wait to see what FromSoftware has in store for us later today!
