On May 30th, Bandai Namco will make available their game on multiple platforms including PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC through Steam.
The Deluxe Edition of the game comes with a digital artbook, soundtrack, and additional content. Meanwhile, the Collector's Edition only contains physical items such as a Wylder Nightfarer statue, Steelbook, hardcover artbook, Nightfarer cards, and other exclusive items.
There was a closed network test on February 14-17.
The forthcoming release is a cooperative, multiplayer experience within the realm of Elden Ring. As per the developer's description, it involves player versus environment (PvE) combat.
In this condensed action RPG, players will never experience the same journey twice as enemies, rewards, and Limveld itself are ever-shifting and evolving with each new session. Defeating greater enemies and venturing into the more dangerous parts of the map will uncover more powerful weapons and greater Rune rewards. Finding Sites of Grace gives each hero a chance to level up and gain crucial power. With each session-based adventure being akin to playing through an open-air dungeon, every journey provides an opportunity to grow lasting stat bonuses. Successful runs against the night bring players ever closer to defeating the Nightlord and unraveling the story behind each Nightfarer in this parallel world.
