Summary

  • August 28, 2026 is the release date for both Elden Ring's €4.99 Tarnished Pack DLC and the Nintendo Switch 2-exclusive Tarnished Edition.
  • The DLC exists to bring the Switch 2 edition's added content to PlayStation, Xbox and PC players rather than leaving those platforms without the new features.
  • €4.99 buys two new starting classes—Heavy Knight and Idus Knight—plus four armor sets and three customization skins for Torrent.
  • Elden Ring first launched on February 25, 2022, and the new pack extends one of the decade's most acclaimed games with a low-cost content refresh.
