The story and slower pacing are replaced by roguelike features that make the game more fast-paced and easier to drop in and drop out of. Each “run” can be completed in well under an hour and takes place in three in-game nights. The map shrinks like you’re playing PUBG, and you and your team have to survive and then beat the final boss to win.

Once the release date rolls around, Elden Ring Nightreign will come out on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
