Bandai Namco is now accepting PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S applications to test Elden Ring Nightreign from February 14-17. The game is a standalone multiplayer co-op PvE game set in the same universe as Elden Ring. It was announced last month at The Game Awards and will launch for PC and consoles later in 2025.
Testing opportunities will allow players to try out the game’s co-op experience by teaming up in squads of three to “outlast a three day-and-night cycle” by taking on increasingly difficult packs of monsters and enemy bosses. Ultimately, players are trying to reach the Nightlord.
About Elden Ring Nightreign
The all-new adventure in ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN begins at the Roundtable Hold, set in a universe parallel to the events of ELDEN RING. Players must choose from eight unique characters, each with their own abilities and powerful Ultimates. Their journeys take them to Limveld, an ever-changing environment, where they will have to make split-second decisions when it comes to combat and exploration in the face of a night cycle that shrinks the map with the coming Night’s Tide. At the end of each night, players will face a powerful boss and, if victorious, awaken to bigger challenges. Each session will culminate in the third night when they must face off against the chosen Nightlord. Individuals can fight the night alone, but strength will come in numbers. Nightfarers must learn to cooperate to take down these challenges, combining their unique abilities together for an unparalleled experience. All is not lost for those who fall in defeat. Unsuccessful runs will grant players relics to allow them to customize and upgrade their characters tailored to their personal play styles.
