TechRadar Verdict
Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree is quite anomalous among modern-day downloadable content.
Its more Elden Ring, but that is what youve signed up for, right?
Simply put,Shadow of the Erdtreeis massive.
Still, such issues arent nearly enough to muddy the experience I had withElden RingsDLC.
ButShadow of the Erdtreeisnt most DLC packs.
Shadow of the Erdtreesboss fights are the highlight of the expansion.
Ive wanted a true hand-to-hand weapon option inElden Ringsince launch.
Then, capping off the Castle Ensis legacy dungeon is Rellana, the Twin Moon Knight.
If you lovedElden Ring,youll simply adore whats on offer inShadow of the Erdtree.
Should I play Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree?
This included thoroughly exploring most areas and defeating all bosses required for progression as well as many optional ones.
After besting the DLCs final boss, there were still some parts of the map left unexplored.
