You Can Currently Save a Few Bucks on Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Before Release on PC

ign.com:

Shadow of the Erdtree, Elden Ring's 'first and last' DLC expansion, is a little over a month away. Whether you're jumping back into the base game before release or starting from scratch altogether, the hype is slowly building. Shadow of the Erdtree will release on June 21 and is set to cost $39.99 -- but if you're on PC, there's already a tantalizing saving on offer to you.

Fanatical, a trusted PC and Steam code seller, currently has the Elden Ring: Shadow of The Erdtree expansion listed for $35.19 / £30.79 in the UK, alongside the 'Premium Bundle' for $43.99 (down from $49.99). That's at least $4.80 savings and 12% off one of the most anticipated DLCs ever. This feels like a no-brainer.

If playing Shadow of the Erdtree already seems like a done deal for you, this offer is like finding almost $5 in change stuffed into the back pocket of the jeans you wore last week. While this isn't a Fire Giant-sized discount, it's one of the best PC video game deals running.

Codes at this price aren't unlimited either, so it could be worth securing ASAP to ensure you're paying the best price possible. In case you missed some other finer details, this is a Steam code purchase and only for those on PC.

FromSoftware boss Hidetaka Miyazaki hasn't shut down the possibility of a full sequel, and when asked about the future of the franchise, he commented that FromSoftware deliberately leaves the end of its games open to potential sequels, and it seems Elden Ring will be no exception.

Miyazaki suggested in March 2024 that FromSoftware hadn't made a decision on a sequel yet, but similarly spoke to the desire to keep its options open. "We don't want to say this is the end of the Elden Ring saga for now," he told IGN.
