FromSoftware’s upcoming Elden Ring: Nightreign blends elements from multiple genres, making preparation essential for those diving in on day one. With influences from roguelikes, hero shooters, and battle royales, playing the right games beforehand can provide a serious advantage.
Revisiting Elden Ring
The best starting point is revisiting Elden Ring’s official page. Many of Nightreign’s combat mechanics, weapons, and bosses come straight from the base game. Mastering Elden Ring’s combat and enemy patterns will be invaluable, especially since several world bosses in Nightreign are directly lifted from the original game.
The Legacy of Dark Souls
Fans of Dark Souls may also spot familiar foes, like the Nameless King from Dark Souls III. Players unfamiliar with the earlier Souls games should consider exploring them to get a taste of the classic boss encounters that might make a return.
Roguelike Preparation
Beyond FromSoftware’s own titles, roguelike experience in Hades and Hades II will help players adapt to Nightreign’s randomized power-up system. The way Hades handles selecting and chaining buffs mirrors the strategic decision-making needed for Nightreign’s runs.
Games to Improve Team-Based Combat
For those interested in team-based combat, games with strong cooperative mechanics can help prepare for Nightreign’s trio-based format. Some excellent choices include:
- Apex Legends – Teaches movement, quick looting, and ability management, useful for Nightreign’s fast-paced format.
- Overwatch 2 – Helps develop synergy within a team-based shooter setting.
- Destiny 2 – Encourages coordination and strategic use of unique character abilities.
First-Person Roguelike Action
Additionally, anyone looking for first-person roguelike action should check out Witchfire, a dark fantasy shooter currently in early access. Its high-risk, high-reward encounters closely resemble the challenges Nightreign promises.
Final Thoughts
With Nightreign pulling from multiple gameplay styles, these games provide the perfect way to sharpen your skills before launch.
