Elden Ring Nightreign was one of the bigger surprises at The Game Awards, it is the first time we have a nearly dedicated multiplayer experience taking place in the world of a FromSoftware game. where previously they had competitive or cooperative aspects, Nightreign is a Battle Royale like game in the genre.
In an interview with IGN, Junya Ishizaki, the games director, revealed that the game will only be playable by yourself, or as a trio with no option of being playable as a duo. However, the director also mentions that it was meant to be played as a Trio.
IGN: Sure. [Laughs] Back to the game, one thing that wasn’t clear to me yesterday. Do you have to play it online in a group of three, or can you also play it solo or in a duo?
Junya Ishizaki: The game is designed to be played as a three-person team, but you can play it as a solo player.
IGN: Oh, great. Or in a pair?
Junya Ishizaki: No, it's either one-player or three-player.
We are all curious to see what becomes of Nightreign when it eventually releases in 2025.
Where will you be dropping Tarnished?
