One of the most interesting reveals at the Game Awards was FromSoftware’s Elden Ring Nightrein, a multiplayer title set in the critically acclaimed Elden Ring universe. We have good news, as a Closed Network Test will be happening for the game from February 14-17!

The network test will allow players to try the game’s co-op experience, teaming up in squads of three to outlast a growing gauntlet of enemies for three days and nights. There is some bad news about the test. For the time being, it will only be available for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S models.

If you are interested, you can register for the test here. While the lack of PC testing is unfortunate, this is only a preliminary test, and there will likely be future network tests as Nightrein approaches release.
