The Elden Ring team will be hosting a network test for its upcoming co-op spin-off, Nightreign.
The test itself will take place in February, and serve as a “preliminary verification” trial for a handful of selected testers. As you would expect, those who manage to secure themselves a place on the network test will be able to play a portion of the game prior to its launch.
I know plenty of people who will be itching to give this a go (ahem, Ed).
“Various technical verifications of online systems will be examined by conducting large-scale network load tests,” reads the Elden Ring: Nightreign information page.
Those interested in taking part in the upcoming network test will be able to register for the chance from 10th January. According to the network test’s webpage, it will be available across PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles.
“Steel your resolve, Nightfarers,” the Elden Ring team wrote on social media.
Steel your resolve, Nightfarers.
Registration for the #ELDENRING #NIGHTREIGN Network Test will open on January 10, 2025.

As Ed reported last night, players who take to Elden Ring: Nightreign on its release will have to “outlast a three day-and-night cycle, making split decisions about combat and exploration across changing maps to become strong enough to take down terrifying bosses at the end of each day”.
