The above announcement didn’t come any sort of release window or price nor did it state what it is in the DLC or how big it is. From only stated that it is now in development.

Some users are delving into the above image for details From didn’t explicitly spell out, though. For example, some think that Malenia’s brother Miquella or his alternate personality, St. Trina, is the person riding Torrent. Some are also speculating about the tree in the distance and thinking it could be a Haligtree, the failed Erdtree Malenia tried to plant, wrapping around an Erdtree.

Almost all of From’s soulslike games have also gotten at least one expansion, too. was the only one not to receive paid DLC, as it only got a big free update about a year and a half after release that added two new modes and some outfits.
