The two recent releases set in the same universe as ELDEN RING™—the critically acclaimed action RPG with more than 30 million unit sales and 300 “Game of the Year” nominations and wins, including winning at The Game Awards, DICE, and Golden Joystick Award—have both recently surpassed global unit milestones.

Itself critically acclaimed and gathering several game of the year nominations, Shadow of the Erdtree provided a new look at the mysticism and lore of ELDEN RING, taking players from the Lands Between to the Realm of Shadow, where they must follow in Miquella’s footsteps to discover more of what happened with Marika, the golden order, and the DLC’s enigmatic villain, Messmer the Impaler.

ELDEN RING™ NIGHTREIGN released back in May of this year as a standalone multiplayer co-op action survival game. Selling more than 2 million units less than 24 hours after becoming publicly available, the game has already surpassed 5 million units globally, less than two months after launching.
