Elden Ring takes a cooperative survival turn when the standalone Elden Ring Nightreign launches next month, and Bandai Namco is taking the time before that to introduce some of its Nightfarers. The latest preview focuses on Ironeye, a ranged specialist who’s a total beast with a bow.

Elden Ring Nightreign hits PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam on May 30. Here’s how Bandai Namco describes it:
Teaming up in squads of three – or daring to go solo – players must choose one of eight Nightfarers, each with different abilities, to outlast a three day-and-night cycle. Players must make split-second decisions about combat and exploration across a map that can fluctuate with different biomes, weapons, and enemies in order to become stronger, and outrun the encroaching circle of fire to be able to take on terrifying bosses at the end of each day. This culminates on the third day, where if players were successful in surviving the night must take on one of the Nightlords – new bosses for this version. Nightfarers must learn to cooperate to take down these challenges, combining their unique abilities together for an unparalleled experience in the ELDEN RING universe. All is not lost for those who fall in defeat. Unsuccessful runs will grant players relics to allow them to customize and upgrade their characters tailored to their personal play styles.
