This May,Elden Ring Nightreignwill combine the setting ofElden Ring, Lands Between, with three-player co-op and battle royale elements, along with bosses from past FromSoftware games.
The reveal ofElden Ring Nightreignat The Game Awards 2024shocked many FromSoftware fans, as they weren’t expecting the follow-up toElden Ringto be a co-op game. Thus far, many of the reactions toElden Ring Nightreignhave been positive, with many fans being curious about the game’s three-day structure, character roster, and the Nightlord antagonist will entail. On February 14, players were given the opportunity to have their first hands-on experiences with theElden Ring Nightreignclosed network test, which is being held in multiple three-hour sessions until February 16. Inadvertently, the Steam page forElden Ring Nightreignalso gave players some insight into what they can expect after the game’s launch on May 30 as well.
As reported byPC Gamer, the official Steam page forElden Ring Nightreignhad a line that read “Additional DLC — Additional playable characters and bosses.” The line was removed shortly after its discovery this week, which could be interpreted as an error by Bandai Namco. However, Bandai Namco’s official product page forElden Ring Nightreign’sDeluxe and Collector’s Editionshas the same line pertaining to the game’s additional DLC. As a result,Elden Ring Nightreignis more than likely going to receive more content in the future to keep players engaged in their co-op adventures.
