Elden Ring enthusiasts, gear up for an exciting update coming in 2025 that promises to enrich your gaming experience with a slew of new features. Set for release at some point next year, this update will introduce a range of fresh armor, weapons, and, for fans of Torrent, new customization choices for the beloved mount.
This upcoming content will roll out as part of Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition on the Nintendo Switch 2. Scheduled to hit the shelves later in 2025, this edition not only includes the base game but also bundles the highly acclaimed Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. While Switch 2 users will get to explore this comprehensive package, players on other platforms won’t be left behind, as they’ll also receive access to this new content.
Elden Ring made waves in the gaming community upon its 2022 launch, quickly establishing itself as a top-tier title with chart-topping sales and rave reviews. FromSoftware kept the fires burning post-launch with updates that improved gameplay and added exciting elements, much to the delight of fans.
In 2024, the game’s stellar Shadow of the Erdtree expansion marked another high point for the franchise, earning widespread praise and even snapping up a Game of the Year nomination at The Game Awards. Now, anticipation builds as we look forward to this next major update.
In the meantime, players can start prepping for Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition on the Switch 2, revealed during the latest Nintendo Direct. This package ensures that players have everything they need to explore the captivating world of Elden Ring, complete with all the latest updates. More information on this edition is expected as its release date approaches.
Interestingly, while the Tarnished Edition is heading to Switch 2, there hasn’t been any similar announcement for Elden Ring Nightreign. Designed as a cooperative experience, Nightreign would seem perfect for the console, offering a roguelite spin where teams of three traverse expansive territories to conquer formidable bosses. Even so, Switch 2 owners can look forward to immersing themselves in the original Elden Ring world in the interim.
With an action-packed adventure complete with RPG, Soulslike elements, and mature themes, Elden Ring continues to captivate and challenge players across platforms. As we await these exciting developments in 2025, the gaming world is abuzz with what lies ahead for this iconic franchise.
