Elden Ring Nightrein gets its first update, here's what's new

It's the big day for Elden Ring Nightreign! A relatively atypical project in FromSoftware's catalog, this new game combining roguelike and survival components has been relatively well received by the press, even if, unsurprisingly, the feedback has been much less enthusiastic than for Elden Ring and Shadow of the World Tree. Nevertheless, the time has now come for players to dive into this new experience, which is already accompanied by a first patch for its launch.

A first update for Elden Ring Nightreign

Deployed on all platforms, this allows Elden Ring Nightreign to enter its version 1.01, with various improvements related to gameplay and game stability announced by the studio. Here is the detailed list of the contributions of this first update:

• Improved playable character management
• Additions and adjustments to the soundtrack
• Adjustments to the text
• Balance adjustments
• Added character scenarios
• Bug fixes

Please note that some PC players may experience difficulties correctly launching the game via Steam. If this is the case, FromSoftware recommends the following:

• Go to "Library"
• Right-click on Elden Ring Nightreign
• Select "Properties"
• Go to "Installed Files"
• Launch "Verify Integrity of Game Files"

A problem awaiting correction on PC

Finally, still for PC players, Please also note that frame rate drops may occur for those with the latest graphics cards on the market. "We are currently investigating the cause" the studio then indicates on this subject. In fact, if you are affected by this problem, it is currently recommended to adjust the graphics quality of Elden Ring Nightreign via the game menus, reduce the resolution and finally, obviously, install the latest drivers for your graphics card while waiting for a new patch to resolve the problem.

As a reminder, Elden Ring Nightreign is officially available today on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and PC. Are you planning to embark on the adventure? So here are 7 things you need to know to survive this particularly challenging game.
