The Shadow of the Erdtree DLC forElden Ringwill be out on June 21.

These enemies have been revealed on social media, withElden Ringconfirming a strange new creaturethat looks like something from FromSoftware’s ownBloodborne. The latest beast revealed for theElden RingDLC is a robed creature with horns, a golden mask, and chakram-like blades.

Elden Ring Reveals New DLC Enemy
One theory is that this newly-revealedElden RingDLC monster is the second phase of a fight spotted in the trailer. At one point during theElden RingDLC trailer, players see a monster wearing a lion’s head. Twitter users pointed out how the robe and feet seem to match the creature in the image, suggesting they may be one and the same. TheElden Ringbase game featured a handful of memorable two-phase bosses, and so it stands to reason that the same would be true of the DLC as well.
But again, that’s just a theory, and fans will likely have to wait until June 21 to find out more. That being said, there is a chance that more info on theElden RingDLC could come a bit earlier than expected.Elden Ringpublisher Bandai Namco Entertainment has been confirmedas one of the 55+ companies for this year’s Summer Game Fest.Elden Ringwas prominently featured at a previous Summer Game Fest, and so it wouldn’t come as a shock if the DLC were to make an appearance at this year’s SGF on June 7.
