Elden Ring Nightreign was one of many massive headlines at The Sport Awards, and sign-ups for a community check of it are set to open up this week. That is fairly fast, however clearly it ain’t fast sufficient for some hardcore Souls heads, with one having determined to set themselves the problem of doling out a no hit boss beating day-after-day till it is out.
For those who by some means missed Nightreign being introduced, it is a co-op focussed title that can enable a number of gamers to tackle bosses from the FromSoftverse in collaborative environments. So yup, Elden Ring along with your mates in a kind that is not simply leaving one another cheeky notes.
As of writing, Nightreign would not have a concrete launch date as such – it is coming in 2025, however we have no concept when. That hasn’t stopped YouTuber Chickensandwich420, who’s the “first Elden sandwich” in response to their channel’s description, from setting out on a quest to kill the time (thanks, TheGamer).
Principally, they have been no hit killing Shadow of the Erdtree fireplace/snake baddie Messmer day-after-day since December 16, utilizing a distinct weapon each time, so issues do not get stale. I’ve received no concept the place the entire being a sandwich half is available in, however I assume it is serving to in some vogue. As of proper now, they’ve simply handed day 21, and day 22’s kill must be coming immediately.
The problem is being achieved on NG+7 and, as outlined within the decrptioon of its debut video, Chickensandwich420 does appear to have no less than thought of contingencies in case the sport would not arrive early this 12 months. “Initially, [I] was gonna do completely different Fromsoft bosses from all video games (since, yknow, Nightreign is a multiverse recreation), however I am lazy [and] it is my final 12 months of uni so I dont wish to spend time grinding bosses as an alternative of doing work. If this recreation would not come out by the tip of June I will department out to different video games.”
They did a comparable factor with Maliketh within the run as much as Shadow of the Erdetree’s launch in June final 12 months, so that they’re clearly able to taking over boss-killing duties. This is hoping they have loads of sarnies stashed away in case Nightreign seems to be a fall launch.
For extra Elden Ring chatter, be certain to take a look at why our James picked Erdtree as his GOTY regardless of it being DLC, and our protection the “strategic capital and enterprise alliance” Sony and Fromsoft father or mother firm Kadokawa established late final 12 months.
