ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN

In this standalone adventure set in the ELDEN RING universe, you play a Nightfarer tasked with resisting the creeping night and hunting the Nightlords in Limveld. You can set out alone or join up to two other players. Each expedition sends you across a changing landscape for two in-game days. Fight enemies and local bosses, explore points of interest, and seek stronger gear before the safe area contracts; on the third day, face that expedition’s Nightlord. Choose from heroes with distinct passive abilities, skills, and ultimate arts, and coordinate their abilities with your team. Enemies provide levels during a run, while boss rewards can supply weapons or buffs; runs also award currency and relics for between-run progression.

Lead a distinct hero through timed expeditions in Limveld, gathering power before the shrinking night closes in and a Nightlord awaits.

Multiple reviews state there is no PvP, no in-game voice chat, and no crossplay; several also mention duo support being added later, but this is review-sourced rather than store-confirmed.
