Elden Ring Shadow Of The Erdtree Finally Gets A Discount, And Your NG+ Save Isn’t Ready

Elden Ring is the culmination of FromSoftware’s experience making some of the best Soulslikes (and, in reality, creating the subgenre). It’s both spectacular and brutal, with a unique world to traverse that remains one of the best open-world maps in video game history, even years later. Shadow of the Erdtree amps that difficulty up to 11, and I’m sorry to say it, but your New Game+ save isn’t ready. At least the discount sweetens the deal. Stepping back into the well-worn shoes of your Tarnished—and, if they’re anything like my character, blowing the dust off after sitting around for years—it’s time to head to the Realm of Shadow. This new map is a twisted, even more death-filled take on the Lands Between. Considering how much death happens there, well, that’s saying something. Look, you may have defeated Radahn, and you’ve likely slaughtered Malenia so many times that you’re starting to feel like “Let Me Solo Her.” Good for you. The Shadow of the Erdtree expansion will show you just how unprepared you are. I mean that as someone who beat the final boss of the expansion pre-nerf. Yes, FromSoftware decided the climactic fight was too challenging. Let that sink in. https://www.youtu…
