One of the most notable announcements from The Game Awards 2024 is the potential release of a new game titled Elden Ring: Nightreign alongside the success of Astro Bot.
The game, named Elden Ring: Nightreign, is set to launch in 2025 and will be a co-op focused version of the famous series from FromSoftware. Right from now, many fans of Elden Ring are eagerly anticipating the bombshell release of this title.
Clear information about Elden Ring: Nightreign is making gamers excited.
Firstly, regarding gameplay, Elden Ring: Nightreign will focus on survival mechanics as players will need to explore environments during the day and engage in combat at night. The unique elements that have made the series successful will be integrated, with combat styles depending on the equipment players choose to bring along. Importantly, Elden Ring: Nightreign will not be a free-to-play title; instead, its price is expected to be reasonable compared to other AAA titles. Additionally, the game will not feature a Battle Pass or microtransactions after launch.
However, there is bad news for PC gamers: according to Bandai Namco’s official website, the publisher has revealed that Elden Ring: Nightreign may only release an early access version in February 2025, with registration expected to open in January. While this sounds promising, it seems that the early access may be limited to console gamers on PS5 and Xbox Series. Notably, there are no logos for Steam or Epic Games Store included.
Therefore, PC fans of Elden Ring: Nightreign will have to wait until the official game launch to have the chance to experience it, instead of being able to test the game beforehand like console players.
