Elden Ring Nightreign is a deeply flawed multiplayer game I’ve spent over 250 hours in this year

Elden Ring Nightreign is a multiplayer spinoff of the FromSoftware universe that emphasizes teamwork in a roguelike format, where players face challenges to defeat the Nightlord. The game has limited in-game communication tools, relying on tagging for interactions, which can be frustrating without external coordination. Post-launch, FromSoftware has added content such as the Everdark Sovereigns and the Deep of Night mode, which introduces new challenges and mechanics. The recent DLC, The Forsaken Hollows, adds a new map and two Nightlord bosses, along with a Scholar character that enhances item value. Future projects from FromSoftware may be on the horizon, but Nightreign offers a rich experience for fans of the franchise.

Fight like a Witcher in Elden Ring thanks to this ingenious moveset mod

A new mod for Elden Ring allows players to play as Geralt of Rivia, created by modder therealsqueam. The Witcher—Moveset Mod features a dual sword moveset inspired by The Witcher 3, incorporating Geralt's combat techniques and allowing players to cast his signs. Key features include specialized techniques for running attacks, roll and backstep follow-ups, and jumping strikes. All five Witcher signs are included, each with unique mechanics, such as Aard's knockback and Igni's fire attacks. The mod maintains balance by limiting the effectiveness of certain signs, like Axii and Quen. It requires the installation of Elden Ring's expansion, Shadow of the Erdtree, to function.

Nine Sols is a standout gaming experience of 2023, noted for its stunning art direction, compelling narrative, and finely tuned combat mechanics. It represents a shift within the "soulslike" genre, leaning towards the intricate design seen in Sekiro, which redefined combat expectations by focusing on breaking an enemy's posture rather than just depleting health. The game emphasizes timing and precision in blocking, enhancing player engagement.
