Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Accolades Trailer Highlights Critical Acclaim

Alongside the announcement of five million copies sold, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree has received an accolades trailer. It highlights the praise from various reviewers and publications – fitting for what’s currently the highest-rated expansion in Metacritic’s history. Check it out below.

Shadow of the Erdtree sees the player venturing to the Realm of Shadow, pursuing Miquella the Kind.

Messmer the Impaler rules, but plenty of other threats lurk throughout.

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree offers many new weapons, items, Ashes of War, armor sets, and Talismans, and has received praise for its world design, bosses and art direction. There’s been backlash from some players regarding the difficulty, but a recent patch adjusted the first half of Scadutree Blessing levels, providing more damage output and resistance.
