Elden Ring Nightreign Release Date Unveiled!
Elden Ring Nightreign Release: A Glimpse into the Future of Cooperative RPGs
Elden Ring Nightreign is the latest addition to the renowned Elden Ring universe, crafted by the masterminds at FromSoftware and brought to life by Bandai Namco Entertainment. Mark your calendars for the May 30, 2025 release, as this standalone spinoff is set to redefine cooperative action RPGs on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
Key Features of Elden Ring Nightreign
- Gameplay: Dive into a session-based cooperative experience that differs from the open-world exploration of its predecessor. Teams of three players embark on a thrilling adventure through Limveld, a procedurally generated area, over three in-game days. Prepare for a climactic boss battle while mastering survival mechanics, a shrinking map reminiscent of battle royale games, and roguelike elements that reset character progression after each session.
- Progression: Customize your journey with one of eight distinct characters, each with unique stats and abilities. While progression is session-based, earn permanent bonuses through Relics collected during gameplay.
- Standalone Experience: There's no need to own the original Elden Ring to dive into the action of Nightreign.
Editions and Pricing
- Standard Edition: $40
- Digital Deluxe Edition: $55 (includes a digital artbook, mini soundtrack, and additional DLC)
- Collector’s Edition: $200 (includes physical collectibles like a statue and artbook)

Martin, a key contributor to the original game, is not involved in this project. A network test was successfully conducted in February 2025 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S players.
