Yesterday was a big day forElden Ringfans after the premiere of the firstShadow of the Erdtreetrailer was released. With the evening spent analysing every frame, it wasn’t long before players started speculating about the DLC’s size and scope.
After long last, FromSoftware’sfirst trailerfor the much-anticipatedElden RingDLC,Shadow of the Erdtreepremiered yesterday and fans of the award-winning RPG were happy to say the least. The three-minute trailer gave us our first look at what we can expect from the new content which will reportedly feature “a brand new map separate from the Lands Between”.

This news comes courtesy of an interview with IGN andElden Ringdirector Hidetaka Miyazaki in which it soon became clear how ambitious this project was for the development team. So ambitious in fact that theShadow of the Erdtreemap is expected to be as big as the very first area inElden Ring,Limgrave.

“It’s hard to answer without giving away too much and to a high degree of accuracy, but if you think in terms of scale or size, it’s probably comparable, if not larger, than the area of Limgrave from the base game,” Miyazakisaid.
Not only that but accessing this new map will be made possible through “a warp of sorts” which many fans believe is connected to Miquella themselves.
With the promise of “open field maps, with large scale legacy dungeons, and with small to medium scale legacies”,Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtreeis expected to beFromSoftware’s“biggest DLC” yet when it releases on 21 June.
