FromSoftware president Hidetaka Miyazaki expects players to use guides for the upcoming ‘Elden Ring’ DLC ‘Shadow of the Erdtree’. The expansion - which will release next week (21.06.24) - will bring a plethora of new environments for players to explore, though the studio’s boss has admitted even veteran FromSoftware gamers may have to use walkthroughs to uncover all of the secrets waiting for them in the DLC. For ‘Shadow of the Erdtree’, Miyazaki said the developers ”have faith that [players] will be able to continue, find these secrets and overcome these challenges” once they had progressed though the base game.
