The network test is a "preliminary verification test" that aims to give Bandai Namco "various technical verifications" of the game's online systems ahead of launch.

How to sign up

The Nightreign network test takes place February 14-17 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, and you can sign up here. Registration is open now through January 20 at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET. While the network test is only supported on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, the full game will also come to PS4, Xbox One, and Steam.

For anyone just catching up, Nightreign takes place in a parallel universe to Elden Ring. Players choose from a group of eight characters as they try to survive each night cycle where the map continuously shrinks.

"At the end of each night, players will face a powerful boss and, if victorious, awaken to bigger challenges. Each session will culminate in the third night when they must face off against the chosen Nightlord," reads a line from the game's description.
