Elden Ring Nightreign‘s first big network test is underway, but eagle-eyed observers have already spotted that the survival royale has more on the way. A now-deleted Steam page mentioned additional DLC, seemingly confirming Elden Ring Nightreign will get additional boss and characters as DLC.
Per PC Gamer, a line on Elden Ring Nightreign’s Steam page read: “Additional DLC — Additional playable characters and bosses.” It’s since been removed, and there’s always the slim chance this was added in error, but it more than likely confirms Elden Ring Nightreign will be getting more content down the line.
Since this particular version of Elden Ring is a bit more online and live service, it’s not a surprising note. Elden Ring Nightreign is a standalone game, and developer FromSoftware has been pretty consistent with producing DLC for its previous games.
If more bosses are in the works, hopes would presumably be high for returning fights from previous games. Elden Ring Nightreign already has a few enemies from previous FromSoftware games, like the Nameless King. Why not more?

Iconic fights like Gwyn, the Looking Glass Knight, or Lady Maria would almost certainly be fun to see in this co-op take on Elden Ring. Nothing’s set in stone yet, but given FromSoftware’s portfolio of bosses, it’s hard not to start picking out some dream matches. And that’s not even digging into the possibilities for new characters to play as, fighting against said bosses.
As for Elden Ring Nightreign itself, the network test is underway today, though not without some network hitches. If you didn’t make it into the beta, you can still check out our impressions of the Elden Right Nightreign network test build here, which seems like a really good time.
Elden Ring Nightreign launches on May 30, 2025 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
