Elden Ring Nightreign Brings Back Iconic FromSoftware Bosses and Introduces Co-Op Gameplay

The upcoming spin-off reimagines classic bosses while adding new mechanics and a faster-paced multiplayer experience.

Elden Ring Nightreign, set to release in 2025, is FromSoftware’s first co-op-focused title, featuring a faster-paced gameplay style and pre-defined characters called Nightfarers.
The game will include returning bosses from previous FromSoftware titles, such as the Nameless King from Dark Souls 3 and the Centipede Demon from Dark Souls, alongside new encounters tailored for the game’s structure.
Leaked footage reveals the Fingercreeper, a hated enemy from Elden Ring, has been reimagined as a boss in Nightreign, sparking excitement and dread among fans.
The game’s director, Junya Ishizaki, stated that adapting familiar bosses was driven by gameplay needs, nostalgia, and the desire to create a diverse roster of challenges for the new multiplayer format.
Future DLC for Nightreign is hinted at, with additional playable characters and bosses potentially expanding the game’s roster and connecting it further to FromSoftware’s broader universe.
