As a hardcore Soulsborne fan, I'm still obsessing over Elden Ring's DLC possibilities in 2025 โ and let me tell ya, the potential for new endings has me shaking with excitement! ๐ฎ๐ฅ FromSoftware's never done anything like this in their previous games, but Elden Ring's lore practically BEGS for fresh conclusions. With six existing endings already offering wild variations of The Lands Between's fate, imagine how DLC could blow this wide open! Seriously, the replay value's already insane, but tossing in new endings? That's straight-up genius game design. And it all hinges on those glorious Great Runes!
๐ Why Great Runes = Ending Revolution
Look, the lore's crystal clear: when Queen Marika shattered the Elden Ring, her demigod kids snatched those shards as Great Runes. By reuniting them at the end, we literally reshape the world! But here's the kicker โ we don't even know how many shards exist! ๐ฑ Current endings use mending runes from quests (shoutout to Fia's epic questline), but DLC could introduce COMPLETE sets. Imagine reforging the ring with EVERY missing piece โ that's where Miquella enters the chat!
๐ธ Miquella: The Cocooned Game-Changer
Malenia's twin brother isn't just sleeping beauty in a cocoon โ he's the last living Empyrean demigod! Mohg's creepy abduction left him dormant, but DLC will 100% feature this legend. Why does that matter? Dude DEFINITELY has his own Great Rune! Obtaining it could trigger:
-
Extended final boss sequences against powered-up deities
-
Mind-blowing interactions with Marika (currently stone-cold dead)
-
A full restoration of the Golden Order's original glory
โ๏ธ Miquella's Anti-Golden Order Crusade
Here's where it gets spicy: Miquella HATED the Greater Will. He built the Haligtree as a refuge for the oppressed (low-key Elden Ring's REAL parasite ๐). This radical empath likely crafted his OWN mending rune to cure his and Malenia's curses! DLC could reveal this game-changing item, letting us forge a new reality based on compassion โ not dogmatic tyranny. Imagine an ending where The Lands Between becomes a sanctuary, not a slaughterhouse!

๐ซ My Wild 2025 Prediction
Picture this: We shatter Mohg's palace, revive Miquella, and use his Haligtree rune to merge with the Erdtree. BOOM โ we become dual-god consorts, ruling a healed realm where Scarlet Rot blooms into sacred flowers instead of decay. ๐ That's the poetic ending Miyazaki WOULDN'T give us... but COULD! Whatever happens, Elden Ring's about to rewrite Soulsborne history โ and my controller's ready!
