As many of you know, a new digital attack took place a few days ago, this time against Bandai Namco. Immediately, new alleged “leak” information about the catalog of the Japanese company circulated. According to this legend, a Elden Ring DLCKnown as the Barbarians of the Badlands.
This is a leak Is it safe? As we reported, probably not. There are various details within this rumor that make it believe it is fake, such as that some of the logos are fan-made. Also, there are some inconsistencies with upcoming games previously announced by Bandai Namco. In short, Barbarians of Badlands seems to be the invention of some jokers.
But we don’t think it’s too much to worry about, because An expansion for Elden Ring almost underestimated. With the exception of Sekiro alone, it has always offered additional paid content for its titles since the days of Dark Souls From Software. Sometimes cut from the main game and refined for a special edition of the base game, or refined for actual DLCs that approach the concept of the expansion, given how great they are in terms of gameplay and how important they are in terms of “lore”. ” “.
More importantly, Elden Ring has a extremely successful game. Sales stand at 13.4 million units, with data not officially updated since May 2022 – the number is likely to be higher at the moment. Elden Ring has sold far more than any of the other FromSoftware spirits, and one expansion/DLC is capable of placing several million copies.
So the question isn’t whether there is potential for an Elden Ring DLC. The real doubt isWhen“Additional content may be released. FromSoftware is currently in the final stages of development for its next title, which is said to be an Armored Core. This phase of work could keep the company’s entire team busy for a while.
Also, Elden Ring’s size means the DLC should be a bit too big. bodied, perhaps with a brand new region and a new Legacy Dungeon. FromSoftware’s public will certainly not be pleased with a little bit of content strewn across the map that is already available.
This means that the expansion will take a long time to develop and may arrive much later than many fans had hoped. Clearly it’s all speculationhowever, we do not think that this is a very remote possibility.
There to request So here’s what we’re asking you: Would you like to return to Elden Ring Interregnum with a massive new expansion? Do you think there is a “time limit” when FromSoftware should release this DLC? Let’s talk about.
