Elden Ring’s Shadow of the Erdtree DLC is mere days away, and FromSoftware has announced the minimum and recommended specs for players ready to jump in to the Land of Shadow on PC. If you were wondering how similar the Shadow of the Erdtree specs were compared to Elden Ring’s base game, you’re in luck – they’re almost the same, despite the two year gap between the game’s original release date and the DLC dropping.
With the Elden Ring DLC PC specs now out, and the global release and preload times also live, the final pieces of the puzzle are all coming together before Shadow of the Erdtree launches on Friday. Here’s what your rig will need to run the DLC on June 21 (and what you might need to upgrade in the meantime if your PC is looking more like a toaster these days).
