Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 Edition is the bundle that puts both halves of FromSoftware’s action RPG in one box: the full Elden Ring base game on a PlayStation 5 disc, and the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion as a voucher code included in the case. Bandai Namco describes this edition as a bundle of the Elden Ring base game and the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, so you do not need to own Elden Ring already to play the expansion with this copy.

What Is in the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 Box
The front of the case reads Shadow of the Erdtree Edition, with a seal that says it includes the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion and that a voucher code is included. For Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 buyers, that means two things: the Elden Ring base game is on the disc, and the expansion is unlocked by redeeming the code on your PlayStation account.
Bandai Namco states that a single Shadow of the Erdtree download code can be used on both PS4 and PS5, and that physical retail versions of this edition are only made for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Redeeming a voucher needs a PlayStation account and an internet connection; the base game on the disc does not.
Elden Ring: The Base Game
The base game inside Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 is FromSoftware’s open-world action RPG, published by Bandai Namco and first released on 25 February 2022. Bandai Namco describes the Lands Between as a fantasy world created by Hidetaka Miyazaki with George R. R. Martin, made of vast landscapes and shadowy, complex dungeons that are connected seamlessly. You travel on foot or on horseback, build your character, and choose your weapons, magic and approach to each fight.
Bosses are the centre of the experience, and they are demanding. Bandai Namco highlights that you can summon familiar spirits or call on other Tarnished players to fight at your side when a fight is too much alone. If you have the standalone base game only, our Elden Ring PS5 page covers that version separately.
Shadow of the Erdtree: The Expansion
In the expansion half of Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5, the Tarnished is guided by the Empyrean Miquella to the Land of Shadow, which Bandai Namco describes as a place obscured by the Erdtree where the goddess Marika first set foot, a land purged in an unsung battle and set ablaze by Messmer’s flame. PlayStation’s UAE page calls it an all-new story with mysteries, perilous dungeons, new enemies and items.
Bandai Namco lists new weapons, equipment, weapon skills and magic not found in the base game, along with new enemies, boss encounters and plotlines. Shadow of the Erdtree launched on 21 June 2024. The Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 expansion is content for experienced players, and Bandai Namco describes the edition as the base game on disc and the expansion in digital form, so the two install separately.
Players, Online and PS Plus
Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 is a single-player game at heart. PlayStation lists it as 1 player offline, supporting up to 6 online players with PS Plus, and PS Plus is required for online play. Online features in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 include co-op summoning and messages left by other players; you can ignore all of them and play entirely alone.
PlayStation also notes that although Elden Ring is playable on PS5, some features available on PS4 may be absent. Bandai Namco and PlayStation do not publish a resolution or frame-rate figure for the PS5 version on the pages we checked, so we do not quote one.
Languages and Age Rating
On PlayStation’s UAE store, the PS5 version of Elden Ring lists English voices and on-screen text in English, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian and Spanish. Arabic appears only in the PS4 version’s text list, not the PS5 one, so do not buy Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 expecting Arabic menus.
PlayStation’s UAE listing rates Elden Ring and Shadow of the Erdtree 16, so Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 is meant for players aged 16 and over, and the box carries a PEGI 16 label. The game contains blood, violence and dark fantasy themes.
Who This Is Not For
Players who already own Elden Ring and only want the expansion are paying, with Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5, for a second copy of the base game here. Anyone who needs Arabic on-screen text on PS5 should know it is not listed for the PS5 version. And if you dislike long, punishing boss fights, Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree PS5 is likely to frustrate you rather than entertain you.
The expansion code also adds a step: it must be redeemed online on a PlayStation account, and the expansion is then tied to that account rather than to the disc. If you plan to lend or resell the disc, the expansion does not travel with it.
