Yesterday, FromSoftware released an unexpected patch for Elden Ring Nightreign that included substantial balance adjustments for the roguelike soulslike game. Here are the key takeaways:

• Most merchants now provide a Wending Grace item that fully revives players at night bosses, applicable solely in single-player mode.

• Players can hold two revive items at once and are encouraged to purchase them whenever available.

“The following improvements for solo expeditions will be added to the game: the effect ‘Automatic Revival Upon Defeat’, which allows revival once per night boss battle, will be added to solo expeditions. The amount of runes gained will be increased. Thank you for your support.”
“Les améliorations suivantes pour les expéditions solo seront ajoutées au jeu : l’effet ‘Renaissance automatique après défaite’, qui permet une renaissance par bataille de boss de nuit, sera ajouté aux expéditions solo. Le montant des runes acquises sera augmenté. Merci pour votre soutien.”

On social media, the official Elden Ring account disclosed two major upcoming changes: a complimentary revive for every climax night boss and a faster accumulation of runes compared to co-op mode, addressing notable difficulties in solo play.

While Nightreign is best enjoyed in co-op, the upcoming solo adjustments strive to create a less frustrating experience, boosting the game’s challenge factor.
