Fans of Elden Ring have seized on a cryptic social media post from developer FromSoftware, sparking widespread speculation that further downloadable content could be on the way, two years after the release of the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. The post, shared on X on 31 July 2026, featured a 12-second video of a player riding through Siofra River alongside the caption "Even the perilous hunt for the demigods holds moments of quiet wonder," prompting an outpouring of theories, including hopes for DLC centred on the character Godwyn.

The post has attracted 4.8 million views and 17,400 likes, with replies filled with fans convinced FromSoftware is hinting at new content, though there is no concrete confirmation of another expansion. Observers have pointed to details such as the absence of certain enemies in the featured location and the appearance of a new Torrent skin, while alternative explanations include promotion of the upcoming Tarnished Edition for Nintendo Switch 2 or the recently wrapped Elden Ring film, due for release on 3 March 2028.
