We’re days away from registrations going live for FromSoftware’s standalone multiplayer co-op action survival game Elden Ring Nightreign’s Network Test<\/a>, which begins on 10th January 2025. The Network Test will start sometime in February 2025; official start and end dates have yet to be confirmed, but it will be available for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S consoles with no word on a PC Network Test.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since the game’s official reveal during The Game Awards 2024<\/a>, there hasn’t been much information regarding the forthcoming multiplayer co-op action survival game or the Network Test, but a recent interview revealed one game feature that won’t be included in the game. <\/span>Elden Ring Nightreign game director Junya Ishizaki spoke with IGN Japan<\/a> recently, and they confirmed a fan-favorite feature while explaining why the developer has opted not to have it present.<\/span><\/p>\n

Following Elden Ring’s release in 2022, the game’s in-game messaging feature became a fan-favorite amongst the Soulsborne community and new players, which generated much conversation around its meme-worthy messages many players have left behind.<\/span> Some iconic messages that became memes across the Soulsborne and gaming communities include the infamous “Pull finger, but hole,” <\/strong>“dog,”<\/strong><\/em> and “Try jumping,”<\/strong><\/em> which have garnered much attention in the months that followed, but after Elden Ring Nightreign’s announcement, many have wondered if the in-game messaging feature would be included in the game.<\/span><\/p>\n

In an interview with IGN Japan, Ishizaki confirmed that Elden Ring’s message system won’t be included in Nightreign, which may disappoint some players, but a logical explanation as to why it won’t be featured was provided. Ishizaki stated that the “three-day session”<\/strong><\/em> within Nightreign could average around 40 minutes, meaning there won’t be enough time to leave one behind.<\/span><\/p>\n
