Elden Ring | DLC Receives Mysterious Steam Update After Two-Year Gap, Fuels Anticipation.

On January 11, a mysterious update appeared on the backend of Steam, catching the attention of Elden Ring enthusiasts. The unknown addition, discovered via SteamDB by Twitter user @Ziostorm1, resides in the DLC section of Elden Ring's Steam page. Despite rampant curiosity, the specific nature of this file remains ambiguous. Notably, this marks the game's latest DLC inclusion since the addition of a pre-order bonus bundle in May 2022.

Amid the fervor, hopes are high that this update is linked to the much-anticipated Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. However, it's prudent to approach this theory with caution—an essential reminder considering the DLC's announcement in February 2023. While FromSoftware indicated in December 2023 that the DLC is still in progress without a confirmed release date, many fans speculate a potential launch in February 2024. 

Moreover, PUREARTS, one of the leading creators of premium quality collectible figures for the video games + movie industry. PUREARTS has disclosed its collaboration with Elden Ring through an announcement. The revelation hints at an upcoming release in February 2024.

Despite the absence of concrete information, fans have suggested that news about the DLC might coincide with the action RPG's release anniversary on February 25, 2024. Meanwhile, others are more cautious, opting not to raise their expectations too high to avoid potential disappointment. Amidst the ambiguity, fans have generated their wish lists for the forthcoming DLC, expressing desires for more Miquella, additional dungeons, and alternative endings.

Ultimately, as the community eagerly awaits, all eyes are on FromSoftware for the long-awaited revelations.
