Elden Ring Nightreign Is Out Sooner Than You Think, Set for PS5, PS4 This May | Push Square

pushsquare.com:

Bandai Namco and FromSoftware have announced their multiplayer spin-off Elden Ring Nightreign will release for PS5 and PS4 on 30th May 2025. Accompanied by hands-on preview articles — including our own take — the release date means Nightreign is right around the corner, only three months away from launch.

The game is available to pre-order now for £34.99 / $39.99 for the base version. A Deluxe Edition is also being offered for £47.99 / $54.99 that bundles in a digital artbook, soundtrack, and «additional DLC».

The confirmed release date marks a very quick turnaround for Elden Ring Nightreign, as it was only first revealed at the end of 2024 at The Game Awards. An online game for either one or three players, you'll do battle against classic bosses from both Elden Ring and Dark Souls, alongside completely new ones, as you work through a structured day and night cycle, all the while having your playspace reduced as a circle closes in around you.

Rise together, Tarnished

Calling it the «most interesting PS5, PS4 multiplayer game of 2025» after a six-hour preview session, we said: «Elden Ring Nightreign is an exciting new venture from the famed RPG developer. By streamlining the best aspect of the base game and condensing it into a much more intense and focused co-op experience, it can’t be understated how much fun Nightreign is.»
