Elden Ring Nightreign Network Test: A Three-Hour Daily Limit

The upcoming Elden Ring Nightreign network test imposes a three-hour daily playtime restriction, running from February 14th to 17th. This limited access will be exclusive to Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 players. Applications are currently open via the official FromSoftware website.

FromSoftware's monumental success with Elden Ring in 2022 has generated immense anticipation for its spin-off, Nightreign. Following the release of the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion, the surprise announcement of Nightreign at The Game Awards 2024 fueled even greater excitement. This new title represents a departure for FromSoftware, prioritizing co-operative gameplay and incorporating roguelike elements such as procedurally generated encounters.

The network test, described on the FromSoftware website as a "preliminary verification test," aims to assess online systems through large-scale network load testing. While the test excludes PC players, the final game will support the platform upon its official release. The three-hour daily limit, while potentially disappointing to some, is a crucial step in ensuring a smooth launch for Nightreign. The lack of a confirmed release date adds to the mystery surrounding this highly anticipated title, but the network test suggests a launch is imminent.
