The very act of the news dropping, combined with the imminent release of a new trailer for the DLC, has sent shockwaves through the community. The teaser drop caught everyone off guard, with no leaks even hinting at this unexpected development.
The closest any leak came to predicting this was speculating on new DLC information dropping on February 25th, still a few days away. Now, as the trailer release looms, the wait for Shadow of the Erdtree details is finally over (at least for now). A release date for the highly awaited DLC could be just around the corner.
Fan reactions over this info drop have been anything but underwhelming. The community has been on fire, having all types of reactions.

Leaks Suggest Elden Ring DLC Shadow of the Erdtree Releasing Soon
A reputed leaker, billbil-kun, has revealed that the trailer is very likely to announce the release date of the Elden Ring DLC as June 21, 2024.
The reason behind this is that the leaker has found the release date of several special editions of the game on different platforms:
- Elden Ring Shadow Of The Erdtree (DLC included) – GOTY Edition: 79.99 euros (physical copy for PS5, Xbox Series X)
- Elden Ring Shadow Of The Erdtree (DLC included) – Collector’s Edition: 259.99 euros (physical copy for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X)
If the dates for these new editions of the game are true, then Shadow of the Erdtree DLC could be released in June or a bit earlier. With the date being only three months away, fans wouldn’t have to wait a long time to get their hands on the new content.
