An Unboxing of and the Best Prices for Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree Collector’s Edition
Finally, fellow Tarnished, we've reached the day of days—launch o'clock for Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree. By now, you would have seen our IGN review for this phenomenal 10/10 masterpiece of a DLC that almost feels like a sequel in its own right. Which, let's be honest, is what you love to hear about a bit of add-on content that's very reasonably priced.
Another thing many of us love to hear: a touchstone gaming event like this, that's garnered almost universal praise, has been suitably celebrated with a whizbang edition for diehards. FromSoftware has indeed taken that route with the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree Collector's Edition, a not inexpensive bit of kit that we'll be unboxing and tracking bargains for in a moment. (While stocks last, and hopefully before the scalpers descend, like a horde of head sucking leeches with arms.)
And now, without further ado, let's get you sorted for prices on this rock solid contender for GOTY 2024. Or, possibly, DLCOTY 2024.
- Buy Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree digital on Steam - $59.95
- Buy Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree Edition digital on Steam - $119.95
- Buy a PC edition direct from Bandai Namco - $449.95
Truth be told, I've been all the way through Shadow of the Erdtree already, and I know the subject of this Collector's Edition like the back of my Malenia's Gauntlet. Posterboy of the entire DLC and star of at least one lead-up trailer, Messmer the Impaler, is a foe that is both eye-catching in his design and lifebar-destroying in his merciless onscreen assaults.
The Elden Ring universe is chock full of memorable boss battles and bad-ass beasties—Messmer deserves his place both at the top of the boss food chain and in that pool room display cabinet in your own castle.
His Poke-ness rests entombed within a Collector's Edition box that's coated in runes and measures 20x27x38 cm. Breaking the seal on this prison reveals a range of items besides Messmer which should be quickly scooped up into your inventory.
