"Elden Ring Adds Two Classes in Nintendo Switch 2 Tarnished Edition"

Elden Ring is set to make its debut on the Nintendo Switch 2 with the "Tarnished Edition," bringing along some exciting new features. Revealed at the "FROMSOFTWARE GAMES EVENT Spring 2025" held in Tokyo on May 6, this edition will introduce two new character classes: the "Knight of Ides" and "Heavy Armored Knight." These classes will come with unique armors, two of which will be included in the edition, while the other two can be earned in-game. Additionally, players can look forward to new weapons and skills to enhance their adventure.

For fans of the spectral steed Torrent, three new appearances will be available, adding a fresh twist to your journey through the Lands Between. While these features are part of the Tarnished Edition, which also includes the Shadow of the Erdtree content, FromSoftware has confirmed that they will be available on other platforms through the "Tarnished Pack" DLC, which is set to be priced affordably.

The introduction of new classes and content is particularly appealing for those starting fresh on the Switch 2, offering a new way to experience the game. This move is especially significant given Elden Ring's massive success, having sold over 30 million copies worldwide. As the game continues to attract a vast audience, its arrival on the Switch 2 is poised to further boost its popularity.

While specific release dates for Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition on the Nintendo Switch 2 and the Tarnished Pack DLC are yet to be announced, both are slated for release sometime in 2025.
