Game News 19 hours of gameplay and 1178 deaths! This Elden Ring player isn’t kidding: he completed the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC under extreme conditions

A daring challenge!

As of Friday, June 21st, players can finally get their hands on Shadow of The Erdtree. The DLC received excellent feedback from critics. With a rating of 95 on Metacritic, there’s no denying that it’s bad.

With more than thirty new bosses, including twelve main bosses, the Sans-Éclats who set out to explore this new location have a lot of work ahead of them. While some had prepared to face them as soon as the DLC was released, Others preferred to challenge themselves, like NoahJ, an American streamer who decided to complete the entire DLC naked and armed with a stick.

Hidetaka Miyazaki had warned players. Shadow of The Erdtree will not be easy for those who are not prepared. However, NoahJ completed it from top to bottom, without armor or magic, and by not summoning any allies. He actually eliminated all the DLC bosses, including the final boss, not without difficulty. After 1178 deaths and 19 hours spent trying to defeat him, he finally did it, armed with a big stick (which ends up not being just a simple stick) and his courage! A great achievement that Internet users keep reminding the streamer of in the comments section of his post on X.

A DLC with many additions

Shadow of The Erdtree brings a lot of new features to Elden Ring. While many have been waiting for the new bosses, we should not forget that there are also new weapons and equipment. Overall, the expansion is just as high quality as the original game. This breath of fresh air is greatly appreciated by the community, especially since various fixes were made to the From Software title for the DLC’s release. One of them was eagerly awaited by the players!

Among these fixes, designed to improve player comfort, we find: the addition of a “!” in the inventory for newly obtained objects, a new “Recent Objects” tab and, above all, the ability to use Torrent during the final battle of the game.

New features are very well received by the community.
