Overview
- Released on May 30, Nightreign detaches from Elden Ring’s open-world RPG roots to present short, repeatable expeditions centered on three-player cooperation.
- Players select from eight pre-built Nightfarers, leveling up through combat and Relic upgrades to face preliminary bosses each night before a climactic Nightlord fight on Day Three.
- Permadeath mechanics reset wiped teams to the Roundtable Hold, intensifying stakes and blending battle royale–style encroaching zones with roguelike progression.
- While reviewers lauded the addictive co-op synergy and inventive boss encounters, many noted its punishing challenge, lack of two-player mode, and absence of cross-platform play.
- FromSoftware and Bandai Namco have confirmed ongoing post-launch support and potential expansions aimed at enriching content and addressing community concerns.
