10 Video Game DLCs That Are Secretly Sequels
1. Shadow Of The Erdtree- Elden Ring
When Elden Ring released back in 2022, developers FromSoftware dropped players into a huge and expansive world that was bursting with challenges to overcome and secrets to discover around every corner.
Two years later, the development team succeeded in making fans fall in love with this game all over again with Shadow Of The Erdtree. From the moment that players stepped out of the cave at the start of the DLC to see the Realm Of Shadows sprawl out in front of them for the first time, they were in for an epic experience.
Despite director Hidetaka Miyazaki stating that the new map would be as big as the starting area of the base game, there’s no underestimating just how gigantic this DLC is. With it taking about half the length of the full game to complete, players can lose themselves for hours exploring off the beaten path to uncover large optional areas and the imposing bosses that await there.
With the new Scadutree Blessing system putting the most overpowered builds on an even playfield alongside lore bombshells that changed how fans understood this world, this expansion is the closest that players will ever get to seeing a proper Elden Ring sequel.
