Hopeful Elden Ring fans looking forward to some news on the game's upcoming premium expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, might finally find their enthusiasm rewarded.

A mysterious update on Steam's backend isn't the only reason to celebrate. Apparently, both Bandai Namco America, EU, and Southeast Asia, have all updated their Elden Ring playlists on YouTube.

There's no way of knowing the reason behind the "mystery" update, but it wouldn't hurt to hope, especially with the next Direct Showcase coming soon.

FromSoftware announced Shadow of the Erdtree as Elden Ring celebrated its anniversary. Unfortunately, as of November 2023, the DLC is still a "little ways off." Still, a lot can happen in month, let alone two. FromSoftware could feel confident enough to give audiences a taste of what's coming later this week.

The relative lack of information regarding Shadow of the Erdtree have fueled speculations and discussions about what the DLC could bring to the table. The teaser images, in particular, shows a figure resembling Miquella, the brother of Malenia, who you might know as one of the most difficult bosses in gaming.
