Rumor: Elden Ring Update Files Suggest DLC Based on the Game’s Arenas
FromSoftware is yet to reveal DLC plans for Elden Ring, but it looks like the developer is working on an expansion based on the game’s colosseums. Elden Ring launched in February 2022 to critical acclaim, and it’s currently the highest-rated game of 2022, as well as the PS5 and Xbox Series X generation.

This new patch lowered the attack power of Ashes of War in PvP across the board while increasing poise damage for every weapon’s normal moves. It seems like update 1.07 for Elden Ring also came with new assets that hint at an upcoming DLC.

Sekiro Dubi claims to have found new map files, assets, and textures based on Elden Ring’s colosseum. They also make note of a new hairstyle, map files, and other subtle changes that are set to come in this expansion. Furthermore, Sekiro Dubi has shared an image showing a massive untextured gate to go along with the tweet.

It looks like information found back then was correct in suggesting that future DLC may feature an arena.
