Shadow of the Erdtree is the first expansion for Elden Ring, developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco, and is set to release on 21 June 2024 for PS5/PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

Over two years after Elden Ring's launch, the hugely successful open-world RPG is getting an enourmous expansion that will give players lots of new places to explore, enemies to fight, and weapons to master. We've shared everything we know about the new Elden Ring DLC in our other guide.

Down below you can find out where to buy the expansion, and the cheapest place to get the base game if you haven't already. FromSoftware have also made a collector's edition for Shadow of the Erdtree, featuring an impressive figurine and artbook, and you can find out where to pre-order it down below too.

Shadow of the Erdtree Editions and bonus content

There are four editions for the Shadow of the Erdtree Elden Ring expansion: standard edition, premium bundle edition, deluxe edition, and the collector's edition. The premium and deluxe editions offer some digital bonuses, while the collector's edition also has some physical bonuses. Pre-ordering any edition of the expansion will also give you access to a new in-game gesture straight away. You can see what you get in each edition by scrolling down or using the jump links below:
