Several new pieces of information about Elden Ring’s upcoming Shadow of Erdtree DLC has been revealed in a new post on Xbox Wire. According to the post, the DLC will have an expansive new area with many sections shrouded in fog until you explore further. The post also mentions the Black Flame Dragons and Blackgaol Knight enemies, as well as the Oathseeker Knight armor and Milady greatsword, and the Fingercreepers Spirit Ash. It also mentions the new Scadutree Fragments, “which bolster the player’s Scadutree Blessing. This Blessing is only effective in the Realm of Shadow, and “allows the player to deal more damage and negate more damage from enemies.” The post also mentions the bosses Rellana, Twin Moon Knight and The Divine Beast Dancing Lion. The former is “a massive knight that wielded two swords and dealt fast whirling attacks”, and latter “moves a lot like the dancing Chinese dragons”. Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree will launch on June 21 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam.
