Elden Ring DLC Shadow of the Erdtree will teach players not to take the new expansion lightly with brutal enemies and deadly locations.

In my first moments with Shadow of the Erdtree, I found myself in a graveyard dotted with incorporeal gravestones… and puddles of glowing blood. By the time I remembered what those bloodstains meant and the imminent danger I was in, I was ripped to shreds by a man I did not see or hear coming, leaving behind a new little blood puddle to mark the occasion. I have not stopped grinning since. Shadow of the Erdtree is the long-awaited expansion of 2022’s game of the year, Elden Ring.

However, the reason I died so many times — and the reason I haven’t been able to make much headway in the DLC — is that I let myself get lured in by how deceptively easy the enemies were to kill. Everything went down in one or two swings of my upgraded sword. If I was lucky enough to sneak up behind an enemy, the resulting surprise attack one-shot them. This built an unearned confidence in me that took a long time to dismantle.
