Elden Ring DLC: Main Story Recap Before Shadow Of The Erdtree
Through obfuscating dialogue and intricate lore, weaves a complex and fascinating story. Players discover more about the Lands Between, its people, and its demigods mostly by speaking to NPCs, but their imperfect knowledge and implicit biases paint an incomplete picture. The flavor text on each item they pick up provides a tidbit of information, but it requires a lot of searching — and a fair bit of reading — to grasp the entire plot.
's DLC, , will continue that story by traveling to the Land of Shadow. There, it's expected to uncover secret lore around Marika, Miquella, and Messmer. If it's been a while since they last touched the base game, players going into 's DLC could do with a quick story refresher before beginning.
With Elden Ring’s Shadow Of The Erdtree Expansion less than a month away, players should work on finalizing their characters and builds.
In the beginning, a mysterious, godlike force known as the Greater Will created the Elden Ring, and out of the Elden Ring grew the Erdtree. This would be the very manifestation of order, determining the laws of reality in the Lands Between. But those laws were mutable: semi-immortal beings, known as Empyreans, could become vessels for the Elden Ring and manipulate its nature. Queen Marika was one such being, who seized control of the Elden Ring, becoming a god and ushering in an age known as the Golden Order.
Marika removed the Rune of Death from the Elden Ring, in order to protect herself and her children. And she had many children, who would become the demigods of the Lands Between. Her first consort was the warrior Godfrey, whose children were Godwyn and the cursed Omen twins Morgott and Mohg. Appointing him the first Elden Lord, Marika sent Godfrey on a series of campaigns to exert the Golden Order's will throughout the Lands Between. But once he was done, she banished him and his army, hoping they'd return from foreign campaigns stronger and more ready.
