Elden Ring's Nightreign Test Exclusively for Consoles

Elden Ring

FromSoftware's upcoming title will initially be tested exclusively on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Registration opens January 10th, with testing slated for February. This excludes a large segment of the fanbase from early access.

Bandai Namco has yet to explain the omission of PC players from this initial test phase. However, selected console players will enjoy a first look at the game before its official launch.

Elden Ring: Nightreign continues the narrative of its predecessor, offering new challenges within a dark and foreboding world. While console gamers get early access, PC users will need to await further announcements regarding potential future testing opportunities.

A notable change in Elden Ring: Nightreign is the removal of the in-game messaging system. Director Junya Ishizaki clarified that the approximately forty-minute play sessions are too short to accommodate message sending and reading. He stated, "We disabled the messaging feature because there isn't enough time for sending or reading messages during sessions, which last approximately forty minutes."
