Elden Ring fans are likely counting down the seconds until the release of its hotly anticipated Shadow of the Erdtree expansion this Friday. For those planning to dive into the experience the millisecond it becomes available, developer From Software has one request: no spoilers.

In an X post, the developer shared a short message kindly requesting players to be cool to each other and not go out of their way spoiling the expansion’s content online. The message reads:

Greetings, Tarnished.

With the release of the expansion of Elden Ring, Shadow of the Erdtree, please be mindful of spoilers for those who want to tread into the Realm of Shadow with nothing but their determination and their minds unclouded. 

Thank you for your cooperation.

Despite this reasonable request, if you’re worried about spoilers and don’t plan on shutting yourself inside on June 21 and ignoring the outside world until you complete Shadow of the Erdtree, you’ll probably want to mute any mentions of it on social media; just to be safe. 

But if you don’t care about getting a small taste of what Shadow of the Erdtree entails, you can check out our recent hands-on preview or watch us tour a slice of the game in this episode of New Gameplay Today.
