In preparation for the release of Shadow of the Erdtree tomorrow (or today, depending on your timezone), FromSoftware will be deploying a brand-new update for Elden Ring across all supported platforms.
While today’s update will be filled with new features for players to check out, it also means that the Elden Ring servers will be offline for an extended period of time. But fear not, because once you’ve downloaded the free update, you’ll be able to check out the new inventory features, new hairstyles, new summoning pool features, and much more.
