FromSoftware Sets Sept. 11 Launch for Elden Ring: Nightreign’s Deep of Night Challenge Mode

The mode targets seasoned players through depth-based escalation, offering exclusive gear that trades power for drawbacks.

Overview

  • Enemies are tougher throughout expeditions, and the target Nightlord is randomized.
  • Shifting Earth terrain changes are disabled for Deep of Night runs.
  • Exclusive Depth Relics and new weapons appear only in this mode, adding extra effects that include explicit penalties.
  • Difficulty scales by depth with ratings that rise or fall based on wins and losses, and players are urged to push beyond Depth 3.
  • Depths 4–5 introduce an endless battle, and the official reveal follows weeks of datamined details and modder footage.
