Players Can Sign Up for Elden Ring Nightreign Network Test Tomorrow

Elden Ring Nightreign Network Test: Sign-Ups Open January 10th

The highly anticipated Elden Ring Nightreign network test begins accepting registrations on January 10th, 2025. This initial beta, however, will be exclusive to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Announced at The Game Awards 2024, Elden Ring Nightreign is a cooperative Soulsborne experience set in The Lands Between, designed for three-player parties. The full game is slated for release in 2025. This network test serves as a crucial pre-launch trial.

Limited Platform Availability: While the final game targets PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC alongside the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, this initial test will only be available on the next-gen consoles. FromSoftware has confirmed no cross-platform play will be featured.

How to Register:

1. Visit the official Elden Ring Nightreign network test website starting January 10th.
2. Register, specifying your preferred console (PS5 or Xbox Series X/S).
3. Await a confirmation email (arriving no later than February 2025).
4. Participate in the test during February 2025 (exact dates to be announced).

Test Details and Limitations:

The number of available test slots remains undisclosed. Progress made during the beta is unlikely to transfer to the full game. Further beta tests are possible, though unconfirmed.

Elden Ring Nightreign's multiplayer is limited to solo play or three-player parties; two-player parties are not supported. Whether the network test will impose additional gameplay restrictions remains to be seen. The lack of cross-platform play means players will only be matched with others on the same console.
