Martial Arts and seven more new weapon categories are included in the Elden Ring DLC.

Before the game's official release, From Software released a tonne of new details regarding the bosses, locations, and new weapons in Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. If you thought Elden Ring was large enough already, you might be surprised to hear that Shadow of the Erdtree will include over 100 new weapons and eight entirely new weapon types.

New variations of existing weapon archetypes will be released, and a number of Shadow of the Erdtree teasers have revealed in-depth information on what will be available to players when the DLC goes live later this month. For example, a gigantic new katana that does fire damage has been introduced. You can also deal damage with a new shield that has spikes inserted along its borders. The Elden Ring base game featured an unlimited supply of awesome weapons, and it seems like Shadow of the Erdtree will be no different.The major attraction, however, is the new weapon types . While Software is keeping quiet about most of them, one intriguing archetype—Martial Arts—has been completely revealed. After a few players saw hand-to-hand fighting in the Shadow of the Erdtree teaser, all the information about this combat-heavy new style is now available.

You may combine punches and kicks in martial arts to produce unique combinations that provide pressure to opponents. Martial Arts may be imbued with Ashes of War, just as other weapons can. This gives you a special attack that you can combine with your usual barrage of strikes. One talent, for instance, allows you to leap into the air and unleash a torrent of kicks that seem like they belong in a kung-fu flick on your opponents.When Shadow of the Erdtree comes on June 21 , it will undoubtedly become an all-time favorite if the other seven weapon kinds are even somewhat as creative as Martial Arts. Before it's too late, make sure you've done all you can to prepare for Shadow of the Erdtree since the DLC will demand a high-level character that is quite far in the basic game.
