Elden Ring Nightreign is going to be completely different to FromSoftware's RPG opus. The core gameplay is the same, but the team's focus has shifted towards a more online, replayable experience that promises to challenge us in entirely new ways. You can play solo, but co-op is going to be a must if you want to succeed, and strangely enough you can only do this with three players - no more, no less. That might change at some point, however, as FromSoftware has confirmed that it's "considering" a two-player version of Nightreign - but not immediately.
