Elden Ring Nightreign’s Test Hit by Server Woes, FromSoftware Apologizes

Elden Ring Nightreign’s first network test has faced severe server issues which hindered many players from participating effectively. FromSoftware has acknowledged the problems, especially with PlayStation servers, and issued an apology while encouraging users to retry connecting. The test, running from February 14 to February 17, is crucial for evaluating online features ahead of the game's launch on May 30, 2025. These connectivity issues have frustrated players hoping to experience the new co-op gameplay which offers a fast-paced adventure through an ever-changing world.

The network test aims to assess the online system's functionality and performance before the game’s full release, ensuring a smoother experience at launch.

Elden Ring Nightreign serves as a cooperative spin-off set in a parallel universe to the original Elden Ring. It allows up to three players to join forces against challenging bosses in a dynamic environment. This spin-off enhances the core gameplay of its predecessor, offering more action-packed sequences. With these exciting new features, fans are eager for this addition to the Elden Ring universe, especially following the massive success of the original game released in 2022.
