Bandai Namco has begun sending out emails inviting participants to the closed beta test of Elden Ring: Nightreign, scheduled for February 14-17, 2025. Selected players will be among the first to experience this three-person cooperative mode.
However, due to the game's popularity, scammers are circulating fraudulent invitations. Reports indicate fake emails, designed to mimic official Bandai Namco communications, are being sent. These emails contain links to websites mimicking Steam, designed to steal player account credentials. Some players have even received these messages forwarded from seemingly legitimate friends. While some victims have successfully recovered their accounts through Steam support, caution is paramount.

Always verify the authenticity of any emails or links before clicking. When in doubt, consult official Bandai Namco channels. Never follow suspicious links.
A noteworthy change in Elden Ring: Nightreign is the removal of the in-game messaging system. Project director Junya Ishizaki explained this decision in an interview, stating that the approximately forty-minute session length doesn't allow sufficient time for players to send or read messages effectively. Therefore, the feature has been disabled for this specific game mode.
