Recently, FromSoftware released a new patch for Elden Ring Nightreign, and although the update doesn’t bring anything substantial to the game, it does bring some much-needed and welcome balance tweaks or performance improvements.
Nightreign Patch 1.01.4 Key Changes
More specifically, this patch addresses several player issues, including a persistent matchmaking failure that occurred when two players simultaneously joined and left a team. It also fixes a bug in the third-day boss fight where characters would inexplicably revive without being defeated, a problem triggered when players exited the game and returned from the title screen.
Beyond that, a range of additional bugs have been addressed. This includes a notable fix for “The Crater” achievement, which previously wouldn’t unlock despite players fulfilling the “Shifting Earth: Crater” clearing conditions if they exited the game too quickly—a truly infuriating issue. They’ve also corrected a bug causing music to inexplicably stop, alongside many other less significant, but still welcome, fixes.
As mentioned, this update doesn’t significantly change the game, but it should prevent anything from disrupting your gameplay.
