Elden Ring Nightreign already has a patch with some balance adjustments

As Elden Ring: Nightreign prepares to launch on May 30 in the US, FromSoftware has already issued Patch 1.01 across PC, PlayStation and Xbox platforms. Although details on specific adjustments are scarce, the swift patch highlights the studio’s responsiveness to early feedback.

Here’s what the official patch notes say -

• Improved handling of playable characters
• Soundtrack additions and adjustments
• Text tweaks for clarity
• Undisclosed balance adjustments
• Added character scenarios
• General bug fixes

Players are advised to download the latest version (App Ver. 1.01 / Regulation Ver. 1.01.1) before launching the game on their devices.

For PC users, the official patch notes include troubleshooting guidance for common launch and performance issues. Players encountering startup errors should verify game file integrity via Steam’s Library > Properties > Installed Files > “Verify Integrity of Game Files.” Those experiencing frame rate drops on the latest GPUs may see improvements by lowering graphics presets or resolution and installing up-to-date drivers.

Following yesterday’s review embargo lift, the co-op multiplayer spinoff has drawn mixed early impressions. At the moment, the game has a rating of 80 on OpenCritic. Meanwhile, players have expressed concerns about the lack of crossplay functionality and restrictions on multiplayer gameplay. However, it should be noted that there’s a strong possibility that these issues will be addressed in a near-future update.

As mentioned earlier, Elden Ring Nightreign is all set to launch worldwide on PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X and S, and Xbox One.
