New Elden Ring Nightreign Update Brings Balance Adjusments & Bug Fixes

It’s been around three weeks since the arrival of Elden Ring: Nightreign. Players have been busy mastering the challenges posed by the difficult bosses in Limveld, and we’ve caught a glimpse of how even more challenging they might become. Following its release, Nightreign has undergone several updates, yet some ongoing issues persist. Today’s update focuses on eradicating a few more bugs and making some adjustments to balance. The latest Elden Ring: Nightreign update is now live on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam.

The newest update for Elden Ring Nightreign addresses several technical issues, including damage dealing problems and random game freezes on Steam. Additionally, it raises the likelihood of acquiring weapons afflicted with the madness status ailment as part of some balance changes since the initial release. While this patch is smaller than a substantial content update, it’s expected to enhance the overall experience with Elden Ring Nightreign by addressing these concerns.
