With Shadow of the Erdtree, From Software is currently enjoying great success again. No wonder, after all, the main game Elden Ring was already more than successful. But naturally, not all mods worked with the expansion. Now the developer of one of the most popular fan modifications has come forward with good news.
Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree may not be perfect, but that doesn’t stop the expansion from being a huge success. According to Bandai Namco, just a few days after its release, it broke the impressive five million sales mark worldwide. This figure is particularly strong due to the fact that numerous players on Steam complained about the performance and difficulty level. But the discontent apparently didn’t affect the title, even though From Software tweaked the balance a bit with a patch.

But despite all the praise and criticism, one thing is certain: If you’re looking for seamless and uncomplicated co-op, you don’t even need to touch Shadow of the Erdtree. At least not until now, because the Seamless Coop mod has been updated to include support for the expansion.
LukeYui released this mod for the main game in 2022, and according to him, it allows you to theoretically play through Elden Ring in one sitting. This means you won’t be sent home after you die or defeat a boss. So if the bosses in Shadow of the Erdtree are giving you problems and you’re running out of items to summon help, the mod could be your salvation.
In addition to the DLC support, LukeYui added a few other things and of course ironed out bugs. According to him, Shadow of the Erdtree is now completely playable with the mod, but it is not yet perfect.
The patch notes are as follows:
- Compatibility with Elden Ring App Version 1.12, including Shadow of the Erdtree DLC
- Completely rewritten code; some old bugs (e.g. enemies falling through the floor) do not occur anymore
- Items gained in conversations are now given to all players
- Event flags are properly synchronised now
- Enemy scaling options have been added
- Player death count is now a player banner option
- Have the option to view the current session password ingame
- ModEngine 2 compatibility
- Matchmaking verification: only people with the same mods will be able to connect to each other
- Added invasions (optional)
The long wait is over and the big add-on Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree is finally starting.
