Elden Ring DLC speculation kicks off again after one player finds a big hint buried in a shield that everyone forgot, and it might be the RPG's best-kept secret

Elden Ring Messmer.

Elden Ring DLC speculation is heating up once again now that a player has discovered an item that seemingly ties into the upcoming Shadow of the Erdtree expansion.

As spotted by PC Gamer, FromSoftware CEO and Elden Ring creative director Hidetaka Miyazaki recently told IGN that there's "a small element that I feel has not yet been discovered" in the 2022 action RPG. Naturally, that prompted the game's dedicated community to feverishly scour the Lands Between in search of this secret, and it wasn't long before an eagle-eyed Tarnished found something that seems to fit the bill, although it's worth noting Miyazaki hasn't confirmed – and likely never will – exactly what he was referring to.
