Cthulgus Elden Ring: Nightreign Review
Jun 19, 2025
I'm rating this based on the fun I've had not only with friends, but with randoms too! This seems like a pure multiplayer love-letter to Souls fans. I'm also pre-emptively giving this a nod because I see potential for future updates to add more enemies/locations/weapons/etc. I think the future is quite bright for this title and it's been a judged a tad harshly by critics.
Playing & fighting bosses with co-op is good fun. Some of the bosses hit like freight trains and it would be nice to see them tuned a bit more to help your heroes feel a bit more powerful as opposed to lowly Tarnished. Having a more finely-tuned solo mode would probably do wonders too for people more accustomed to playing by themselves also.
Right now it is a punishing, chaotic slice of Souls, and I see it getting better as time goes on.
