It makes sense, considering how big the base game is and how much larger it’s going to get when theDLC drops.

However in a twist I’m sure everybody saw coming, Miyazaki did tease that it might not be the end ofElden Ring’sstory, possibly hinting at a full-on sequel one day.

This is something publisher Bandai Namco is keen to see as well, and given the prestige and incomeElden Ringhas generated since its release it seems like a no-brainer to greenlight a sequel.

Personally I’m of the opinion thatElden Ringdoesn’t need a sequel, and afterShadow Of The Erdtreedrops they should move on to a new IP.

Whether a sequel is currently in the works or not is unknown at the time of writing, and demand is high for FromSoftware’s next few titles.

Many want aDark Souls 4, whereas many others are straight-up demanding aremakeor sequel toBloodborne. Only time will tell what the studio has planned.

If you need any more reasons to get hyped for the next chapter ofElden Ring, perhaps this life-size replica of Malenia’s arm willgive you a hand, as preorders are open right now.

Elden Ring: Shadow Of The Erdtreewill drop on 21 June later this year for Xbox, PlayStation and PC platforms.
