It looks like fans ofElden Ringcan finally take a sigh of relief, as FromSoftware has announced the date for the Shadow of the Erdtree trailer launch. And this date is not very far away either; fans would be able to stream this trailer in less than a day. It is no doubt an exciting moment for the fans, who had been anticipating this moment from the very second this DLC was announced.

There’s much riding on this trailer; for one,Elden Ringfans would finally know how FromSoftware plans to take forward the story. They would also get a glimpse at the game’s world as well as anything else that FromSoftware has chosen to bring to its fans.

Fans will get their first look atElden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree very soon

From the moment it was announced in 2023 to now, this game has piqued the interest of FromSoftware fans. There have been numerous fan theories and leaks that suggest one other thing. Even theElden RingIP changed hands from Bandai Namco to FromSoftware.

Elden Ring DLC Shadow of the Erdtree Trailer Announcement has Fans Losing Their Minds

And now that this day has arrived, FromSoftware once again took to X/Twitter to announce the trailer launch, just the way they did for the DLC’s announcement. Thetweet from the developersaid, “The trailer for“ELDEN RING SHADOW OF THE ERDTREE” will be released today, February 21st (Wednesday) at 24:00. Please take a look if you like.”This tweet was originally in Japanese; this is the translated version of it.

Alongside this message, FromSoftware even posted their YouTube video link, which takes fans to a video with a timer. This timer ends on February 21 at 10 a.m. EST. This is surprising given the fact that popular leaker and insiderShinobialso hinted at some sort ofElden Ringnews coming very soon.

It looks like this is exactly the thing that was discussed on FandomWire before. FromSoftware was waiting to be handed over the ownership of theElden RingIP to announce this DLC; after all, it made very little sense for them to do so while still being under Namco.

The other thing is thatElden Ring’s second anniversary is also coming very soon. The game was launched on August 22, 2025. This means FromSoftware is pulling the same trick Rockstar Games did with GTA 6, announcing the trailer for the new game close to the anniversary of their franchise.

No matter how they planned it. What matters is the fact that this game will soon be seen by its fans. They would soon know if they would see Miquella in it or not. Or if this game would feature a new timeline or another time period.

One more thing that has been sprouting from the internet rumor mill is that FromSoftware will be announcing the launch date alongside the trailer. This can’t be any further either, as FromSoftware usually only announces its games once they are completely done.

There are other surprises, too!

Another leak from none other thanbillbil_kunhas suggested that FromSoftware would not just reveal the trailer for the DLC; they would also announce a bunch of other things. They also said that fans would also see the prices for those other things. Maybe these are thosecontrollersthat have been showing up all over the internet lately.
