Problems with Elden Ring Nightreign server network
As of now, many people have problems with matchmaking in Elden Ring Nightreign. It seems that the issue is the most common on it was during tests. It seems that players can’t find anyone to play with, which is strange, as there are many people in the game right now – over 160 000 on Steam alone (via SteamDB). So, what is happening? FromSoftware has published a post on this topic on X:
The information below was translated by Google, as the original post is in Japanese:
Thank you to everyone who is playing ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN (PS4/PS5). If you are having difficulty matching, please pause the matching process and select to sortie again. Thank you for your cooperation.
What does it mean? It seems that if your matchmaking takes too long, developers recommend just restarting it. While it may seem like an unhelpful advice, it is worth a try, right? And if that is not working for you, at least we are certain that the issue is known to FromSoftware. The other solution, mentioned by players is to turn off the cross region matchmaking. While it may be counterintuitive, if you can’t find anyone to play with, it does not hurt to check it out.
Sadly, it is not the only issue with servers (or in general), as they seem to be under pressure right now and some people report lags or even network errors. To be honest, it was expected, as I can’t recall any big release focused on multiplayer without some server problems at the beginning. In the next few days it all should be fixed (at least I hope so).
