Elden Ring is set to make its way to the Nintendo Switch 2 with the exciting Tarnished Edition, bringing along a host of new features and bonuses. FromSoftware's epic adventure is expanding with the introduction of two new character classes: the "Knight of Ides" and "Heavy Armored Knight." While details remain scarce, these classes will come with unique looks and be part of a set of four new armors, two of which can be obtained in-game. Fans can also look forward to new weapons and skills, enhancing the already vast gameplay experience.
For those who cherish their loyal steed, Torrent, the spirit horse will receive three new appearances, adding a fresh touch to your journey. These enhancements are not only part of the Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition, which includes the acclaimed Shadow of the Erdtree content, but will also be available on other platforms through the Tarnished Pack DLC. FromSoftware has announced that this DLC will be priced affordably, making these new features accessible to a broader audience.
The addition of new classes is particularly appealing, especially for players starting fresh on the Switch 2. It offers a chance to experiment with different playstyles and adds a layer of excitement for those who have already explored Elden Ring on other consoles. Given the game's monumental success, having sold over 30 million copies worldwide, the anticipation for its arrival on the Switch 2 is palpable.
While no specific release date has been announced for Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition on the Nintendo Switch 2 or for the Tarnished Pack DLC, both are expected to launch sometime in 2025. As the release approaches, fans can look forward to more details and perhaps even more surprises from FromSoftware.
