Recent activity on Elden Ring’s SteamDB listing has sparked speculation about the highly anticipated expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree. An observant user, Zeta50, on ResetEra, noticed a mysterious entry titled “SteamDB Unknown App 2778580” under the game’s DLC category. This addition initially created a few days ago, has recently been linked to the paid DLC section of Elden Ring, suggesting it’s more than just a routine update.
FromSoftware has remained relatively tight-lipped about the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, only confirming in December 2023 that its release is still a while away. However, rumors have been circulating about a possible launch in February. The recent SteamDB update could hint at an imminent announcement regarding the expansion’s release date and pre-order opening.
It’s important to note that this section is designated for paid content, making it unlikely that this update relates to free additions like the previously released Colosseum update. This leaves room for speculation that the update could be linked to the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. While FromSoftware could be planning to introduce new paid gestures or other digital content, the evidence points towards something more substantial.
Stay tuned for more updates on this!
