Bandai Namco Entertainment and FromSoftware have announced that Elden Ring Nightreign, a standalone multiplayer co-op action survival game set in the Elden Ring universe, will launch on 30 May. The game, which focuses on cooperative PvE combat, is now available for pre-order on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC via Steam.
In Elden Ring Nightreign, players can team up in squads of three or take on the challenge solo. They will select one of eight Nightfarers, each with unique abilities, and strive to survive a three-day-and-night cycle. The game features a dynamically changing map with shifting biomes, a variety of weapons, and different enemy encounters. Players must adapt their strategies while avoiding an encroaching circle of fire and preparing to face formidable bosses at the end of each day. The final challenge on the third day is the Nightlord, a new boss exclusive to this title.
Players who are defeated during their runs will still make progress, as unsuccessful attempts grant relics that can be used to customise and upgrade characters to suit individual playstyles.
