When was the Elden Ring Nightreign beta? The Lands Between beckons us once more for a standalone expansion that introduces a roguelike loop into FromSoftware's formula.

Bandai Namco describes it as such, “This large-scale Network Stress Test is designed to evaluate various aspects of the online system’s functionality and performance. We are looking forward to your cooperation to make Elden Ring Nightreign even better.”
