Thankfully, we are getting more of FromSoftware’s magnum opus, Elden Ring. Last year we were treated to the excellent Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, and in just a few weeks we will get the release of Nightreign. In addition to Nightreign, this year we will also be a treated to the Tarnished Edition. No release date has been announced yet, but FromSoftware has just revealed two exciting classes and more details for the Elden Ring Tarnished Edition.
Elden Ring Tarnished Edition new classes and more
On May 6th, FromSoftware conducted an event in Tokyo with Japanese journalists present. This event was covered by Famitsu, and it provided details about Elden Ring Tarnished Edition.
One of the details revealed was the addition of two new classes. These new classes are “Knight of Ides” and “Heavy Knight” (via Google translate). Unfortunately, there’s no elaboration on stats or playstyle as all that was revealed is the name of the two classes.
In addition to these new classes, it was revealed that the rerelease will also include “four new types of armor, weapons, and combat techniques”. There will also be the option to change the appearance of your spirit horse with “three new looks” included.
Elden Ring Tarnished Edition is releasing on Nintendo Switch 2 at some point in 2025. For those who already own the game on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, the extra content included in the Nintendo Switch 2 release will become available via Tarnished DLC.
There’s no release date for the Tarnished Edition as of writing, but it is pegged to come out some time in 2025. It will come out after Elden Ring Nightreign which is officially releasing on May 30th.
