FromSoftware Confirms New Elden Ring Game Coming in July 2027

Elden Ring fans who want to step back into the Lands Between will soon have a clearer date to circle. It’s been a while since the release of Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree and Elden Ring: Nightreign, so players are naturally looking ahead at what FromSoftware will do next. In addition to work tied to the Nintendo Switch 2 release of The Duskbloods, the studio has also confirmed that it’s developing several other new games. One of those projects is rumored to be a brand-new soulslike set in a pirate-themed world, though how that rumor plays out is still unknown. Either way, the community’s not left empty-handed: there’s more Elden Ring on the way, including another tabletop expansion.

What’s next on the FromSoftware front

FromSoftware has confirmed it’s working on multiple upcoming titles beyond The Duskbloods planned for Nintendo Switch 2. Among them is a reported soulslike project that’s said to take place in a pirate setting. Whether that concept turns into something official—and what form it takes—remains to be seen, but it’s part of the broader “what’s next?” conversation that’s been growing as Elden Ring fans settle into the post–Shadow of the Erdtree era.

Tabletop dates: Tarnished Edition and Rot and Sorcery

Elden Ring’s board game line is also moving forward. The Tarnished Edition is scheduled to bring fresh content such as starting classes, armor sets, weapons, Ashes of War, and more when it arrives in August 2026. After that, players won’t have to wait too long to jump back in—at least by tabletop standards—because Elden Ring: Rot and Sorcery is set for release in July 2027. That puts the gap at roughly a year, giving fans time to prepare for another major campaign built around the world they already know.

In the meantime, an Elden Ring fan shared a leaked image with the soulslike community, claiming it shows what the Lands Between looked like about one year before the original game launched. While it’s presented as a leak, it’s still the kind of content that tends to spark discussion among players who want more context on how the setting developed.

Elden Ring: Rot and Sorcery launches in July 2027

Steamforged Games has concluded its crowdfunding effort for Elden Ring: Rot and Sorcery, described as an officially licensed expansion for Elden Ring: The Board Game. During the campaign, it reportedly reached 4,247 backers and raised around $2.5 million USD. Delivery is planned for next July, with the expansion taking players into two new regions: Liurnia of the Lakes and Caelid. Steamforged is also positioning the expansion around two standalone core sets, which can be played on their own or combined with earlier content from Elden Ring: The Board Game for a larger, connected campaign.

• Steamforged Games crowdfunding for Elden Ring: Rot and Sorcery has finished.
• Campaign results: 4,247 backers and roughly $2.5 million raised in USD.
• Planned fulfillment: next July.
• Regions included: Liurnia of the Lakes and Caelid.
• Two standalone core sets that can be combined with earlier Elden Ring: The Board Game material for a bigger campaign.

As with many crowdfunding projects, Steamforged notes that fulfillment timing and final content can still shift before production wraps.

Rot and Sorcery details and compatibility

Steamforged previously delivered one of its biggest crowdfunding wins with the original Elden Ring: The Board Game, bringing FromSoftware’s acclaimed RPG to tabletop through cooperative exploration, character progression, and intense boss fights. Rot & Sorcery is built to extend that same foundation while staying compatible with the original release. The expansion’s content includes both new gameplay elements and additions designed to slot into an interconnected campaign.

• Machinations of the Witch, a new core set set in Liurnia of the Lakes.
• Dominion of Rot, which sends players into Caelid’s dangerous landscape filled with Scarlet Rot.
• Designed for one to four players.
• New enemies, quests, NPCs, equipment, and bosses, inspired by the video game.
• Compatibility with existing Elden Ring: The Board Game content, allowing players to expand the campaign into a larger connected experience.

Because Rot and Sorcery leans heavily into Caelid, the expansion’s most notable “video game–inspired” boss draw is Starscourage Radahn. Steamforged highlights him as especially exciting for fans, referencing his role and encounter in the base game, as well as how his story is expanded in Shadow of the Erdtree. For players who backed through Gamefound, Steamforged also offered multiple pledge tiers during the campaign, including options for each standalone core set, bundles that cover both expansions, upgrade packs for returning players, and campaign-exclusive rewards.

Why fans are already planning for the wait

For players who missed the original board game campaign—or for those who just want a reason to keep exploring the Lands Between together—Rot & Sorcery is being positioned as the biggest expansion yet. The main downside is the calendar: the new tabletop adventure isn’t expected to start until July 2027. That means Tarnished will have plenty of time to get ready before heading into another punishing journey that goes beyond Limgrave.
