While Nightreign's 5 million players have clearly proven the Elden Ring experiment a successful one, the co-op spinoff has still had one glaring flaw: No duos. Today, we know when Nightreign's original sin will finally be set right. Two-player mode is coming with patch 1.02, which will arrive in less than a week.
"We kind of overlooked and neglected the duos aspect," Ishizaki said, "but this is something that we are looking at and considering for post-launch [[link]] support."
In the meantime, looking for some casual Nightreign time with a buddy has meant subjecting ourselves to the whims of the matchmaking pool for your forced third wheel. It's hard for one random player to entirely tank a run, but the added unpredictability can be a drag when you and your friend are just looking for some laidback Nightlord-hunting.
There have been, let's say, "unsanctioned" alternatives while we've waited for official support, however. Less than 24 hours after launch, preeminent Seamless Co-op mod creator Yui released an easy-to-use Nightreign duos mod. Its only problem, however, is that it uses a different save file to spare you from any retribution from Bandai Namco's online services, meaning you'd have to work with a separate pool of [[link]] relics and unlocks.
Luckily, we only have to wait a few more days for the official two player mode. Nightreign patch 1.02 will add duo expeditions, as well as "quality-of-life UI improvements, including more Relics filtering options." And the timing couldn't be better: It'll arrive just as we're gearing up to face the next round of Everdark Sovereigns. It's almost like they plan these kinds of things.
