It is set in the world of Elden Ring, but it’s a co-op survival game unlike the previous two pieces of content.

It’s meant to be played in squads of three, but you can also play solo, where it will be much harder.
There is a three day and night cycle you’re meant to survive.
The maps change as you play and the night cycle shrinks the map. You will “never experience the same journey twice.”
You fight a “terrifying boss” at the end of each day, after the final day you fight one of a selection of “Nightlords,” big bosses.
The game is set in a universe parallel to the events of Elden Ring, which may offer some insight into why someone like Dark Souls’ Nameless King is there.
There are eight unique characters that have unique abilities and a powerful “Ultimate.” So uh, Elden Ring hero shooter? (not really, of course)

If you fail you still get relics that let you customize and upgrade your character to match your playstyle.
The harder enemies you beat and the harder parts of the map you explore will reward powerful weapons and Runes.
Every journey rewards lasting stat bonuses. You find Sites of Grace to level up to gain power with sessions meant to play like an “open-air dungeon.”
Beating the Nightlords will reveal lore behind each of the heroes you play as.
