Elden Ring Nightreign to get Forsaken Hollows DLC expansion: Watch trailer

FromSoftware has confirmed The Forsaken Hollows DLC expansion for Elden Ring Nightreign, arriving on December 4, with new bosses, playable characters, and pre-order bonuses for early buyers

Japanese video game developer FromSoftware has announced The Forsaken Hollows, an expansion DLC for its cooperative action-survival title Elden Ring Nightreign, is scheduled for release on December 4, 2025. A trailer of the upcoming Elden Ring Nightreign DLC expansion has also been released. The new trailer showed scenes from Limveld and the Nightfarers’ latest encounters. FromSoftware said the expansion will add new playable characters and new threats.

 

The DLC introduces two new third-day bosses, new field bosses, a new Shifting Earth – a special condition where the map sees massive geographical changes, and new points of interest in Limveld for players to explore.

 

 

Elden Ring Nightreign was released back in May. Consumers who purchased the Collector or Deluxe edition of the game were eligible to get a DLC update at no extra cost.
