Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree release date and time
The Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is set to go live on June 21, 2024 for all platforms that the base game is available on.
While Bandai Namco hasn’t revealed any specific time of release for the DLC yet, it can be assumed that the DLC will release at 12 AM regional time for all regions across the world.
If this happens, then Japan will be the first country to have access to the expansion.
All Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree editions
Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree will be available in three different editions, each with some additional bonuses. The editions and their bonuses are as follows:
- Shadow of the Erdtree edition
- Elden Ring base game

Which edition is best for you?
If you’re an Elden Ring fan, and you’ve already got the game, then you should go for the Premium Bundle, as that will allow you to access just the DLC and the Digital Artbook.
Alternatively, if you’re yet to get the base game, you can go ahead and buy the Standard edition because that comes with the DLC and the base game in a bundle.
If you prefer owning the sound track too, then you can go for the Delux editioin. However, based on everything that the developers have shared, the standard edition is the best option amongst the three that are being sold.
