The 2024 Game Awards delivered some major surprises. Naughty Dog unveiled a new project, and the Witcher IV trailer continues to generate buzz. However, FromSoftware might have stolen the show with the announcement of Elden Ring: Nightreign. Here's how to register for the Elden Ring: Nightreign network test.

How to Access Elden Ring: Nightreign Early via the Network Test

While many players are still grappling with *Shadow of the Erdtree*'s challenging bosses, anticipation is high for the next *Elden Ring* adventure, *Nightreign*. FromSoftware is offering a unique opportunity: a network test allowing select players early access. This isn't a joke; registration is straightforward.

Visit the Bandai Namco website's Elden Ring: Nightreign section for complete details. The test will assess the game's online functionality before its official 2025 launch. Registration opens January 10th, 2025, for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Participants will receive notification before the test begins sometime in February.

What is Elden Ring: Nightreign?

For those who may have missed the news, here's a quick rundown of Elden Ring: Nightreign before you register for the network test. The game features co-op gameplay, allowing teams of up to three players to explore and battle together.

The trailer showcases new weapons, movement mechanics, and a particularly noteworthy boss. The Escapist's Zhiqing Wan noted a striking resemblance to Dark Souls III's Nameless King. Given the co-op nature of Nightreign, this boss promises a formidable, and potentially even more terrifying, challenge.

That's how to sign up for the Elden Ring: Nightreign network test. If you're aiming to complete the main game before diving into the sequel, here's how to obtain the Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword.
