FromSoftware released its first multiplayer-centric game last week, letting players jump into a variant of its Elden Ring universe but with friends. The three-player cooperative title, Nightreign, does offer players a separate option to try their luck at beating its levels solo. Following feedback, it seems the studio has realized the mode needs some tweaking.
Today, May 2, FromSoftware released patch 1.01.1 to Elden Ring Nightreign, bringing with it changes to the roguelike's balance, as well as more than a few bug fixes.
For single-player players exclusively, FromSoftware has added the effect "Automatic Revival Upon Defeat." This will get the player back into the action exactly once for free whenever they are fighting a night boss battle. It should also stack with the reviving item that's already available to find during runs.
Moreover, single-player runs will give out more runes when defeating enemies, making the level-up process easier. This is an important change considering that with three players, the squad can split up to farm the level-up currency and clear out camps much faster than when playing alone.
Other changes in this patch include higher drops of high-rarity Relics from surviving till Day 3, as well as when purchasing random relics from the Small Jar Bazaar at Roundtable Hold. Some important bug fixes are here too, including camera fixes for Guardian's Ultimate Art, Raider dealing more than intended damage, issues with the climbing up action, and much more.

Elden Ring Nightreign had a massive launch last week, going on to sell two million copies of the game at launch. While not as spectacular as the original Elden Ring, we found Nightreign to be a marvelous action game that never lets up on the accelerator. Read the complete review from Neowin here.
Elden Ring Nightreign is now available on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5.
