Elden Ring Nightreign Launch, Platforms
FromSoftware announced that Elden Ring Nightreign will be released for PlayStation, Xbox and PC users. The company previously organized a Network Test on January 10, 2025. Participants explored an early, unfinished version of the co-op game during the test.
What Elden Ring Nightreign Offers?
Elden Ring Nightreign is a separate co-op game set in the Lands Between. It shares the same combat style as Elden Ring but introduces new character abilities and special attacks. Unlike the open-world format, each run lasts a few in-game days. The available area shrinks daily until a boss is defeated. After defeat, players return to the Round Table hub to recover and restart. Some unlocks are permanent, but players must level up again for each new attempt. Players can explore Limveld alone or in a team of three.
Characters
Four characters are confirmed so far:
Wylder: A hero focusing on speed and attack.
Guardian: A strong character with heavy attacks and damage resistance.
Duchess: A light hero using fast gameplay mechanics.
Recluse: A mage using ranged magic attacks.
Regardless of the character chosen, players will find the combat system familiar. New movement options like vaulting and gliding help players move faster across Limveld. The game also allows teammates to revive each other, preventing complete session losses.
