Elden Ring DLC information reportedly leaks online, supposedly called Barbarians of the Badlands

sportskeeda.com:

It was reported earlier today that Bandai Namco Entertainment, the publishing house behind Elden Ring and the Dark Souls series, were allegedly hit with a ransomware attack by a group known as ALPHV.

They are also referred to as BlackCat and are quite notorious in the field of infiltrating the networks of prominent developers and publishing houses, encrypting their files, and holding them at ransom.

After reports coming in of something similar happening to Bandai Namco facing a similar attack, there have now been leaks online regarding the publishers’ upcoming projects and fiscal year timelines.

One such leak speculates on the arrival of a DLC for Elden Ring, which is supposedly being called Barbarians of the Badlands.

However, as the leaks are still just rumors and leaks without any solid backing, the community is advised to take them with a grain of salt. Bandai Namco is yet to provide any official take on the matter, and if they actually were attacked, it’s very unlikely that the publishers will give into the ransom.

It’s important to note here that whenever a ransomware attack happens like this on any network or server, it takes a few days for the encrypted information to leak online.

However, this reveal has happened within a span of 24 hours in this case. Hence, readers are asked to take the following list of information as nothing more than speculation at this point.

According to leaked information provided by Twitter user @hy_plus, who shared an image that is full of upcoming speculated game content, Bandai Namco's 2023 fiscal year looks as follows:

Q1 FY2023

Q2 FY 2023

Q3 FY 2023

Q4 FY2023

It’s hard to verify the legitimacy behind any of this supposedly leaked information, and the community will just have to wait for Elden
