Elden Ring - How to Start Shadow of the Erdtree DLC (Starting Location to Enter Realm of Shadow)

This shows how to start the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC in Elden Ring. You must have defeated Starscourge Radahn and Shardbearer Mohg main bosses. Then go to Mohgwyn Palace - Cocoon of the Empyrean site of grace. There you can interact with the Withered Arm to start the DLC, which teleports you to the new map called Realm of Shadow.

FULL WALKTHROUGH.

If anybody is having trouble seeing the NPC on PS5 just try restarting your console and boot Elden Ring back up as normal. NPC should appear there! Good luck fellow tarnished.

I Can't Belive It's Been Years Since I Found This Guy, First Video I Ever Saw Was Max Payne 3 Part 1 And Now I Can Finally Subscribe To This Legend.

For any Xbox users who can’t get the npc to show up select Microsoft store on the main menu! It will take you to a screen that’s not able to be accessed through the regular Microsoft store. Hope this helps

Lmao at me trying to touch the guy's arm without having bought the DLC yet. Thanks for including that seemingly obvious first screen!

If anyone dlc not showing up I did all the methods and it didn’t work, and I did beat both boss, what I failed to realize I was in “ new game plus which I didn’t beat radahn “ I had to reactivate the grand lift and get to the first sight of grace, then I was able to fight radahn 😅, I’ve now been able to play the dlc !

[garouraizel]

Yo guys if the npc dont show up, just restart your ps not only the game!
After that it just worked for me, have fun!

[owari]

Kindly YouTuber so very kind of you to put this up there for us kind tarnished on this the most kindly of days

[Junotrigger]

For any Xbox players who can't find the npc, exit the game and go the Microsoft store from the menu. There, you will find an option to install the dlc! You can't do it from the manage game and add on section for some reason

On xbox series X. I went to elend ring microsoft store and it takes you to the dlc. Just need to install it. 18.31 GB

[Trollerx]

at the title screen shadow of the erdtree isnt there on the bottom right, but steam says the dlc was installed via the checkmark. am i missing something?

[ragingbutiki]

Thank you for that first screenshot! Playing on Xbox, and I thought that the patch last night was actually the DLC getting installed—and it wasn't! I was sooo confused for maybe 5 minutes yanking on that poor arm (i.e., hitting A randomly). I had to click on "Microsoft Store" from the start screen and install the DLC from there.

For the people who can’t see the npc, on PlayStation go on your library -> Elden ring -> add ons -> download shadow of the erdtree

[camdoggamer]

If you’re on Xbox going in the game and clicking on store took me to the dlc and i should be downloading it

[BigMoneyFantastic]

If anyone on Xbox is having trouble starting it because of the 'add-on doesn't need to be installed' thing that won't let you install the add-on, just scroll down the Elden ring loading screen to where it says 'Microsoft store' and click on that and it'll bring you to the dic add-on and this time it'll actually give u the option to install it from that point

[SlimImpossible]

Some of us especially on console will have to wait till 12am. Depending on your time zone.

[laughingcageman]

If y’all on console and dlc ain’t working, restart the console. That’s what did the trick for me

[sahelmohammedshaikh]

Thanks i beated every boss in the game but Did not know how to start it was front of me i was here and there and i found out thanks again

[KingDreGamer]

I got the new gesture but I don’t see any NPC to talk to

[rep-kyletv]

If dlc isnt showing up restart your console. After that every thing worled. Before nothing happened but now im in it. Have fun everyone

[Mikebuck]

So much for preordering the DLC …. I had the update for the game today thinking that was it … realized I had started a new game plus so I had to kill Mohg … after that nothing was working … THEN I realized from the PS store you had to install the DLC separately from whatever other update came out for the latest patch
