This is great. Elden Ring game built from the grounds up with co-op in mind.

Believable and relatable...Yep, sounds like Call of Duty

I didn't think rehashing more content was possible. But here's From Software proving me wrong.

They didn't make it clear what type of expansion to elden ring this is. If it is indeed like monster hunter then i'm not interested. But that might not be it really. We'll see

'Elden Ring Nightreign is a three-player co-op game, a standalone spin-off adventure set in a universe parallel to the events of Elden Ring. You'll join two friends at the Roundtable Hold and then head off into Limveld, fighting together to survive three full day-and-night cycles. Outlast the day, and you'll need to contend with the coming Night's Tide, which shrinks the map until you're left with no option but to battle a powerful boss.

The world becomes progressively more challenging across each of the three days, culminating in a battle with the Nightlord himself. FromSoftware says you can opt to play Elden Ring Nightreign solo, but there is strength in numbers. '

I read that it's basically ER roguelike. You choose from pre-made classes, drop into a randomly generated map and survive for 3 days. On the last day you fight a boss.

Every 'match' is supposed to last about 40 minutes.

Speaking of purchasing Elden Ring: Nightreign, PC Gamer added that Bandai Namco noted the standalone experience will cost roughly the same as the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion. That was priced at $40 at launch instead of the typical $60 to $70 for full games these days.

Are there users interested in the new expansion? If there are some, might give it a go - best time I had was with humpers playing Division back in the day.

I am not. For me Elden Ring was solo adventure.

Yeah same here. I never play these stand alone multiplayer games out of known ip's or studios that specialize in solo games. Screw cash grabs

You can solo it, IIRC. It will probably be hard as balls, though

I mean, it looks fine. I'm sure it will be at least a decent game. Just not what I'm looking for from a souls-like.... I get why they're doing it, I'm just waiting for their next big souls-like, cause I'm tired of Elden Ring.

Good to know!
I did read it’s also 3-player co-op but not 2-player co-op which is odd.

Releases May 30th:
https://www.eurogamer.net/elden-ring-nightreign-release-date-announced-by-fromsoftware

Quote:
The release date for Elden Ring Nightreign has been announced.

The FromSoftware spin-off to its incredibly successful epic will be out on 30th May 2025 across PS4, PS5, Xbox consoles, and PC (Steam).

First revealed at last year's The Game Awards, Nightreign is a standalone online co-op game for three players, but with hints of Fortnite.

Players must survive a three day cycle, exploring a vast map of randomised elements and events, while a blue firestorm slowly closes in on players leading towards a boss fight.

Once players survive two nighttime boss fights, they will face one of eight Nightlords.

Since its initial announcement, further details on Nightreign have been revealed such as the inclusion of bosses from previous Dark Souls games and a poisoned swamp area through randomised map changes.

While three players are needed at all times, publisher Bandai Namco has confirmed solo players will be able to play either offline completely alone (without AI companions), or will be matched with others online to form a team of three. Players can queue online solo, as a pair (to be joined by a third), or as an established group of three.

I went hands-on with Nightreign recently and despite initial trepidation over a multiplayer-focused Elden Ring game, I came away impressed by its fast pace - thanks to its parkour system and streamlined levelling - and sense of teamwork against classic bosses.

"Nightreign provides a delectable hit of Elden Ring in a repeatable microcosm," I wrote. "It's got the difficulty, the levelling, the boss battles, and the sense of discovery, but all at high speed for a new type of challenge, while its grim enemy selection is like a best-of Souls mixtape I'm itching to replay."

Players can go hands-on with the same build themselves during the Nightreign beta test this weekend, at least for those who previously registered. The test will last from Friday 14th February to Monday 17th February as a series of three hour long sessions.

The beta test will include four out of the final eight Nightfarers, set playable heroes each with unique skills: Wylder (all-rounder), The Guardian (tank), The Recluse (mage), and The Duchess (rogue).
