澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Elden Ring DLC was only just announced, but the fan theories ♐are alrea𒐪dy flying. 

Earlier today on February 28, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:FromSoftware very casually announced 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Shadow of the Erdtree, a forthcoming Elden Ring expansion. Now, just a few hours later, fans are already debating and theorizing over the sole information w♏e have to go on surrounding the expansion, which is the enigmatic image seen just below.

Be warned: there are spoilers for Elden Ring from here on!

One popular line of thought is that the figure on the right of the image is Miquella. Of course, Elden Ring vetera♈ns will know that Miquella is alive and well during the events of the game, but confined to his cocoon in Mohg'🙈s Mohgwyn Palace, where he was stolen away from the Haligtree.

Hey, this wouldn't be the first time FromSoftware has pulled some time travel shenanigans in a DLC. The developer loves a little bit of time-travelling nonsense, as evidenced by Bloodborne's The Old Hunters and Dඣark Souls' Artorias of the Abyss expansions.

There's another intriguing theory though: Elden Ring's pulling a Dark Souls 3 and taking us into an alternate real𒊎ity. As Alex Donaldson theorizes below, we could be going into "Miquella's dream" for the new DLC, whisked𒆙 away to a new version of The Lands Between that saw Miquella's goal finally realized.

This is basically what Dark Souls 3 pulled with its Ashes ofไ Ariandel expansion, pulling the ওplayer into another world via a painting. If we are thrust into another version of The Lands Between, it wouldn't exactly be a huge surprise given FromSoftware's past.

All these fan theories seem pretty wacky at first, but only get more grounded the more you consider them against FromSoftware's pas💃t. No matter what the DLC does bring when it eventuall🅺y launches, it's safe to say Elden Ring fans are already chomping at the bit to find out more.
