FromSoftware and Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. are set to launch a new multiplayer co-op survival game titled ELDEN RING™ NIGHTREIGN, on May 30. This standalone title is set within the renowned ELDEN RING universe, bringing a unique twist to the co-op gameplay experience.
In ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN, players can form teams of three or take on the challenge solo, selecting from eight distinct characters known as Nightfarers, each equipped with unique abilities. The game takes players through a harsh environment where they’ll need to strategize their combat and exploration over an intense three-day and night cycle. As they navigate diverse biomes, each step must be carefully calculated to survive the expanding circle of fire and ultimately confront formidable bosses, known as Nightlords, on the third day.
Players will not only engage in cooperative gameplay but will also gather relics from unsuccessful attempts, offering opportunities for customization and upgrades to suit individual play styles. This feature ensures that even defeats can pave the way for future victories.

This addition to the ELDEN RING franchise is poised to offer players an exhilarating blend of survival tactics and immersive co-op gameplay, encouraging collaboration and strategy to navigate a perilous world, while gathering relics that foster ongoing character development.
In summary, ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN not only presents newcomers and seasoned players alike with a fresh adventure but also emphasizes the importance of teamwork and individual play styles in overcoming its multifaceted challenges.
