Elden Ring's enduring legacy has both cemented it a place in the hallowed halls of gaming's best and brightest and ensured its long-term popularity, fueled by endless speculation and rumors of a sequel, new content, DLC, or more. Much like Cyberpunk 2077, a surprising counterpart, all things considered, fans are and perhaps will always be eager to find new ways to make delving back into the Lands Between a novel experience akin to the very first time they stepped foot onto that clifftop and glimpsed at but a mere fraction of what the game had to offer.

Fortunately, there are a handful of upcoming projects that seek to do just that. Fans have had recent news about the Elden Ring film to keep them somewhat preoccupied, and there was Nightreign not too long ago. However, these either released a while back and have thus been played to death or are coming in the distant future and thus fail to entertain those seeking immediate gratification. Luckily, Bandai Namco has announced two smaller Elden Ring releases that are set to come out in July, both of which fans will want to pay attention to.

Elden Ring's frequent new releases range from small updates to award-winning DLC and everything in-between. Of course, some are more valued than others, but, for diehard fans, all Elden Ring content is praise-worthy. That should be the case for the two new Elden Ring products launching on the official Bandai Namco store in July, both of which are heavily targeted at those who love the game so much, they want their house to be filled with endless references to it (or at least their bookshelves anyway).

The first of the two products being sold in July is Elden Ring-themed bookends. The set of two bookends feature statues of Radagon and Queen Marika and come hand-painted out of the box. Made out of polyresin, they look perfect for the recently released Elden Ring lore books, or even the Dark Souls comic books from a while back. They are set to release on July 30, 2026, but are available for pre-order on the official Bandai Namco store for $159.99.

The second Elden Ring product is a trinket box inspired by the Academy of Raya Lucaria. It condenses the sprawling location into a singular, cylindrical-shaped box that is designed for storing small items such as jewelry. The top of the box (the academy's roof) detaches, revealing the hollow inside where the aforementioned items can be stored. Like the bookends, this comes hand-painted too, and features plenty of tiny details that diehard fans will appreciate. It can be pre-ordered from the official Bandai Namco store as well for $125.99 and is also set to release on July 30, 2026.

Of course, neither of these is quite as exciting as brand-new DLC or even a sequel, but they're perfect for those who are determined to collect all the currently available Elden Ring merchandise, or those who fancy a few novel new Elden Ring-themed decorations for their setup. Regardless, it is hard to deny that these aren't at least a little different compared to the typical gaming merchandise released for similarly popular titles, and that, when it comes to Elden Ring, Bandai Namco has pulled out all the stops.
