    “New DLC is the biggest expansion yet”

    What does the boss say about the new DLC? Eurogamer conducted an interview with Hidetaka Miyazaka, the director of Elden Ring.

    He says the DLC is the “biggest expansion to date in terms of overall content” compared to previous DLCs.

    The DLC takes place in a new area on a new map: “In terms of pure surface area, you can imagine something even larger than Limgrave in the original game.”

    A new idea is experimenting with eliminating the clear separation between open world and dungeons. There will be both, but there will also be something between these two player experiences.

    How many new bosses are there in the DLC? We’re talking about 10 new boss fights, plus new weapons, equipment and skills.

    How many new weapons will be added? The DLC will add 8 new weapon categories.

    This is what’s special about the DLC: Miyazaki says the new bosses will be similar in difficulty to the endgame of Elden Ring. You want to deliver “challenging fights”, but players should be able to develop freely.

    If you liked the fight against Malenia in Elden Ring, you should find similarly challenging fights in the DLC.

    These are the reactions: For many, Elden Ring was one of the best games of recent years, and From Software has a strong reputation.

    That’s why the DLC is already receiving a high level of trust. On reddit it says: What the boss says is exactly what you wanted to hear about the DLC: more of a focus on an area that should be as narrow and dense as possible and not a map that is bigger than it needs to be .

    Another says: From Software has always impressed with DLCs and has once again exceeded the quality of the original game.

    What are your first impressions of the DLC? Are you looking forward to the release in June or are you a little uneasy about “challenging tasks”?
