FromSoftware's Elden Ring Nightreign Expands Co-op Gameplay in New Survival Action Format

Players will team up in three-player squads to explore Limveld, face challenging bosses, and survive a shrinking map in this standalone follow-up to Elden Ring, releasing May 30, 2025.

Elden Ring Nightreign introduces a cooperative survival action experience where players tackle boss challenges over three in-game days in the new region of Limveld.
The game emphasizes fast-paced gameplay, with increased movement speed, no fall damage, and a shrinking map mechanic reminiscent of battle royale games.
Players can choose from eight distinct classes, four of which were available during the Network Test, each offering unique abilities and playstyles for strategic team dynamics.
The Network Test revealed improved matchmaking and private lobbies but highlighted issues like server instability, lack of reconnect options, and challenges in solo and two-player modes.
Elden Ring Nightreign will launch on May 30, 2025, for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox platforms, promising lore-rich boss battles and streamlined co-op exploration.
