Elden Ring: Nightreign Is Live! (& What You Need to Get Started)

Only a few months back, FromSoft fans have asked, what’s next? And boy, imagine showing our past selves the official Nightreign Evanescence meme trailer chock-full of AMV tropes and still managing to be the coolest thing ever.

But that’s besides the point, fellow fans — the wait is over. The optimized Elden Ring co-op experience, Elden Ring: Nightreign, is now officially out for PC globally, and consoles are soon to follow suit (the release time in CDT is 11 pm, and here are the others). If you are ready to hop right in, you can grab yourself a Steam copy, or a slightly discounted key from Green Man Gaming.

• If you wanted a quick overview of how those timed runs work, we have a guide on Completing Expeditions.
• First of all, of course, you might want to know how to set up a multiplayer with friends, or how to disable matchmaking to play solo — we have a guide on How to Set Up Multiplayer that goes over that.
• We also have the information on the massive variety of map Locations, as well as all of the Bosses you can encounter, and plenty of other guides we are going to keep updating in the upcoming days!

You also can see the basics in this official guide on pre-launch information, or peruse the official starter guide with the general gameplay overview.

Step forth bravely now, Nightfarers, and remember:
As night falls, we rise.
