Elden Ring Nightreign, the multiplayer spin-off from FromSoftware, launched successfully on PC, becoming the second-biggest launch ever for the developer. However, early reviews criticize the game for its lack of onboarding and essential communication tools, making it difficult for solo players. While it offers an immersive experience, akin to a battle royale condensed into 45-minute sessions, many players find that cooperative play is essential for success due to the game's challenging nature. The game is officially out on PlayStation 5 and Xbox but struggles to connect with players who aren't part of a coordinated team.
"If you don't have 2 other friends to play with in voice chat, don't waste your time," wrote Steam user Hishamm.
"Gameplay itself seems fun but I can't possibly leave a positive review if a game released in 2025 has no way to communicate in a coop game (neither voice nor text chat)," wrote Lynni.
"Impossible to make progress without voice chat," wrote Vahit Horoz. "If you have 3 friends you can talk to and play regularly, you will have a blast."
