While Elden Ring Nightreign just launched today, FromSoftware isn’t sitting down twiddling its thumbs, as the developers already have an update planned for the game to be released sometime next week.
This is patch version 1.02, and will implement improvements for solo players.
Elden Ring Nightreign Next Update 1.02 Releasing Soon and We Know Some of the Changes Incoming

According to FromSoftware, the Elden Ring Nightreign 1.02 patch will include the following improvements for solo expeditions:
- The effect “Automatic Revival Upon Defeat”, which allows revival once per night boss battle, will be added to solo expeditions.
- The amount of runes gained will be increased.
No word on whether more improvements or bug fixes will be part of the patch roll out, but I’m expecting a few bugs to be squashed as part of it.
In related news, the game’s first day is a smashing success. No doubt buoyed by the Elden Ring name, Nightreign has already managed two million players! The studio announced the number and thanked players for their support, stating, “Darkness fell over Limveld, and two million Nightfarers rose up against it. Thank you for your support.”
