Elden Ring Nightreign, from FromSoftware, is set to release on May 30 alongside a confirmation for some DLC features, which includes new playable characters and additional bosses, according to information initially available on its Steam page. Though this line has since been removed, it gives a clear indication that more content is planned for the game after launch.

Morgan Park from PC Gamer describes the title as a blend of a boss rush and roguelike mechanics, and while it may not be a direct sequel to Elden Ring, its pricing at $40 points towards a more accessible spinoff experience. Fans are hopeful that this title will live up to the high expectations set by its predecessors’ expansions.

“Nightreign will be an interesting litmus test of why people come to Souls games,” states Morgan Park. “If it’s all about swinging big swords and dodge-rolling away from impossibly hard bosses, Nightreign is gonna be a feast. But if it’s From’s quieter moments that stick with you - exchanges with weird NPCs, taking careful steps deeper into a vast fortress - well, Nightreign ain’t got time for any of that.”
