Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree is the major expansion of the seminal action RPG from FROMSOFTWARE. The expansion is coming to PCs and consoles on June 21, 2024, and includes an update for the base title as well which adds new quality-of-life features and some additional content. With that said, there’s also been a slight update in the PC specifications, and here are the official Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree DLC minimum and recommended system requirements to play the expansion.

The requirements are largely the same as the original game, apart from the inclusion of Intel Arc GPUs, as well as an increased storage requirement of 80 GB from 60 GB. You should expect the same performance as the base game for the most part unless FROMSOFTWARE has some optimizations planned for the upcoming expansion that we don’t know of.
