The release of Elden Ring Nightreign has brought back one underused souls mechanics that you should be exploiting as often as possible, if you are able to. The latest installment in the franchise offers a different approach to the soulslike experience. Instead of following linear progression, players set off alone or in groups of three to survive three in-game day cycles, defeating bosses at the end of each day, until they beat the final boss. As such, players tend to rely heavily on matchmaking to find other players, though the most recent Elden Ring Nightreign update has improved solo play.
