Elden Ring Nightreign is an upcoming action role-playing game by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. A cooperative spinoff of Elden Ring, it was revealed at The Game Awards 2024 and is scheduled to be released in 2025 for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.

Gameplay

Elden Ring Nightreign is a cooperative action role-playing game set in a procedurally generated version of Limgrave, the first open-world area of Elden Ring. While the game has a singleplayer mode, it is intended to be played by teams of three players who collaborate over three in-game days to prepare for the final boss. Similar to battle royale games, Nightreign features a shrinking gameplay area which resets after players defeat the minor boss at the end of each in-game day.

Development

Elden Ring Nightreign is in development by FromSoftware for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. Bandai Namco Entertainment registered the trademark for "Nightreign" on 24 October 2024, and the game was formally revealed at the Game Awards on 12 December 2024. It is scheduled to be released in 2025. The first network test will take place in February 2025 on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, with players able to register on 10 January.

Nightreign is being directed by Junya Ishizaki, who worked as a designer on Dark Souls, Bloodborne, Dark Souls III, and Elden Ring. Unlike with Elden Ring, author George R. R. Martin is not involved with the narrative of Nightreign.
