Elden Ring Nightreign Patch Released Early: Solo Player Support with Modest Changes

Sure thing. Buckle up, here we go.

—

Alright, so picture this: Elden Ring Nightreign servers took a mini nap earlier today, right? During this downtime, those cool folks over at FromSoftware decided to drop what they call a “major-ish” patch. I mean, it’s a patch—kind of a big deal but not earth-shattering. Anyway, it’s pretty sweet news for those of us who like doing our own thing in the game.

Boom! Update 1.01.1 lands on all platforms. Interested? Me too, let’s dig in.

So, many players were squawking about how solo players were getting the short end of the stick. You know, the game’s geared for groups of three. But hey, not everyone’s got two buddies on speed dial. FromSoftware must’ve heard the cries because they promised some tweaks. And guess what? Some changes planned for update 1.02 snuck into 1.01.1. Talk about an early surprise!

Now, the cool stuff for solo peeps: they get a free revival once per night boss fight. Didn’t need that before, but now it just… happens. Like magic. Oh, and they cranked up rune acquisition. Not gonna lie, that’s nice since doing it alone is kind of like hiking up a sand dune—fun, but wow, it’s work.

For the co-op crowd, you’re not forgotten. The patch ups the ante on high-rarity Relics when you hit Day 3 of any Expedition. Think of it as a little “congrats” for reaching mid-week. And those Scenic Flat stones at the Small Jar Bazaar? They’ve been given an upgrade—kind of like finding a bonus fry at the bottom of your takeout bag.

Can we talk bug fixes? There’s a bunch. The camera got a tweak when you’re using Wings of Salvation. Less dizzy, more play: win-win. Plus, skills and values are acting more like they’re supposed to, finally. Cringy jitters, gone. You can glance through all the nitty-gritty fixes if that’s your jam. I’ll just point out a few more: buggy HUDs, wrong sounds, missing effects. All tackled.

Oh, by the way, if you’re all about Steam, there’s some platform-specific fixes too. Like, for real, the Climb up action was being a pain—no more though.

Hey, if you’re still hanging around, maybe bookmark the Elden Ring Nightreign guide. It’s got deets on character builds, walkthroughs—sort of like a friendly nudge in the right direction if you get lost.

Wow, I rambled there. But that’s the scoop!
