Summary
- Elden Ring Nightreign’s network test dates and times have been revealed.
- For some reason, the sessions are incredibly short, only lasting for three hours at a time.
- Registration is open now for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
Elden Ring Nightreign is undergoing network tests, letting some players try out the new FromSoftware game early. Now, registration to get in on these network tests has opened up to the public, and the times and dates have been revealed.
While it seems like the site is struggling to cope with all of the people trying to sign up at once (none of us have managed to get in just yet), registration has opened over on the Bandai Namco website. Once the site is working properly, you can choose to play on either PS5 or Xbox Series X/S, as the tests aren’t coming to PC.
Elden Ring Nightreign Network Test Sign-Ups Are Open Now
There are five sessions, but they don’t last very long at all
As you can see above, there will be five sessions running from February 14 to 16. Oddly, the tests will not last very long at all, with each session only lasting three hours. So, you’ll have to make sure you’re available for that entire bloc to make the most of your time with Nightreign.
This is far from the only oddity we’ve noticed with Nightreign. Frustratingly, it can either be played in single-player or with a party of three, with no option for two-person multiplayer. So, if you only know one other FromSoft fan, you’ll have to either make your peace with playing separately or track someone else down to join you. It’s also not supporting crossplay, so you’ll all have to be on the same platform.
Right now, we don’t have a specific release date for Elden Ring Nightreign. However, it is set to launch at some point this year. While the tests are only available on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, the full game is also coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN is a standalone adventure within the ELDEN RING universe, crafted to offer players a new gaming experience by reimagining the game’s core design.
Join forces with other players to take on the creeping night and the dangers within featuring 3-player co-op.
Take command of uniquely skilled heroes, each possessing their own abilities and distinct flair.
While individually formidable, their skills create powerful synergies when they unite as a team.
