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.
Bandai Namco announced the incoming duo expeditions with an official trailer for two-player mode, which in itself proves how wild of an absence this was. Shortly before Nightreign's launch, even game director Junya Ishizaki acknowledged that only recognizing one person or three people was an oversight.
