Rise again, Sinluz! Shadow of the Erdtree is destined to be the finishing touch to an Elden Ring that has only known success and more than deserved recognition from players and critics. For many, the end of a journey, for others the perfect excuse to embark on it and for more than 60% of those who already have it, the pretext to annihilate an optional boss that continues to roam around its open world and that serves as a key to this new adventure. That’s all very well but, what do I need to play? Is my PC ready for the moment?

The great fact to keep in mind is that the addition of the Shadow Land, the new scenario full of dungeons, new dangers, bosses and tempting relics and weapons, will require, yes or yes, about 20 GB of additional space in addition to the original 60 that Elden Ring had at launch. Of course, in the process a whole new story will be added that will also close the adventure: Shadow of the Erdtree will be the first and only DLC that the FromSoftware game will receive.
From here, an additional note as a reminder: as we mentioned at the beginning, in order to access the contents of this expansion, it is necessary to defeat a specific boss: Mohg, Lord of Blood. This is located in the Palace of Mohgwyn and the truth is that until not too long ago not even 40% of PlayStation, Xbox and PC players had beaten it. Which has led to a curious phenomenon: the day before the launch has been unofficially established as Kill Mohg Day!. The Day of Killing Mohg in the language of Cervantes.
