- Bandai Namco and FromSoftware have announced Elden Ring: Nightreign, a 2025 cooperative action-survival spinoff. Featuring up to three-player co-op, dynamic dungeon exploration, and enemy battles, players survive three days in Limveld as one of eight 'Nightfarers'.
Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. and FromSoftware Inc. have officially unveiled “Elden Ring: Nightreign,” a cooperative action-survival game set in the same universe as the acclaimed Elden Ring, which has sold over 28.6 million copies since its release in 2022. The spinoff is slated for a 2025 launch.

Nightreign blends dungeon exploration, character leveling, and intense battles against formidable enemies. The game introduces dynamic world elements, with maps, enemies, and key locations changing with each playthrough. Players must prepare strategically to confront powerful Nightlords, who emerge at the culmination of the third day.
Each of the eight playable characters features distinctive skills and ultimate abilities, offering diverse playstyles. From summoning massive tombstones to creating weak spots in enemies, players can devise new strategies to tackle evolving threats.
Global collaboration
FromSoftware will publish the game, while Bandai Namco will oversee distribution in overseas markets. Supported platforms include PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Steam, with up to three-player co-op and a single-player mode available.
Building on Elden Ring’s legacy
