Elden Ring Nightreign’s latest patch, version.01.1, has just dropped following scheduled maintenance, and it’s bringing major changes that solo players won’t want to miss.
Key Highlights from the Nightreign Patch.
-
Solo Play Gets Easier: The headline update is the new “Automatic Revival Upon Defeat” feature for single-player expeditions. Now, if you’re playing solo, you can revive once per night-time boss battle, giving you a crucial second chance in the game’s toughest fights.
-
More Runes for Solo Runs: Solo players will also notice a significant increase in rune rewards, making leveling up less of a grind and smoothing out the previously punishing solo experience..
-
Rare Relics Drop More Often: The patch increases both the number and drop rate of high-rarity Relics, especially for those who reach Day of Expeditions or purchase Scenic Flat stones from the Small Jar Bazaar.
-
Bug Fixes and Balance Adjustments: Several bugs have been squashed, including issues with weapon damage, camera behavior, and HUD display. There are also balance tweaks aimed at improving overall gameplay stability and graphics, particularly on the Steam version.
