The update is a safe, incremental patch that brings the offline/cracked version of Elden Ring in line with March 2023 official changes. It’s recommended for PvP players or those wanting the latest balance adjustments, but mod users should stay on 1.08.0 unless their mods have been updated.

FromSoftware made sweeping changes to the balance of the game, aiming to nerf overused tactics and buff underused ones.

The 1.09 update was a significant milestone for Elden Ring , not necessarily for new content (no new bosses or lands), but for how it fundamentally changed the "meta" of the game and introduced graphical features that were promised pre-launch.
