Like more than a few people out there, my first reaction to Elden Ring Nightreign was "ah crap, it's a multiplayer thing." But the more I've thought about it, the more I came to realize there's not only a lot to be excited about with Nightreign, it's also pretty much the experience a lot of fans have either requested FromSoft add to Elden Ring, or otherwise inserted into the game through popular mods.
One of the first things I thought when learning about Nightreign through senior editor Wes Fenlon's extensive coverage was "my god, they're doing their own Seamless Co-op." If you're not familiar, that mod project is basically essential if you're looking for a full on, beginning to end co-op experience of Elden Ring with a friend, as opposed to the base game's grandfathered in, drop in and get disconnected after each boss system from Dark Souls.
