Modders continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible, and the Elden Ring community is no exception. The eagerly anticipated Nightreign update has finally arrived, and within just 24 hours, renowned FromSoftware modder Luke Yui has unveiled a Duo Mode mod for Elden Ring.
In a brief video shared on their YouTube channel, Yui showcased this two-player mod, enabling Nightfarers to team up instead of being restricted to solo play or a trio. While this isn’t yet a publicly available or fully functional mod, it does demonstrate the potential for such a feature. Running independently of the matchmaking server, this version allows users to incorporate other mods during gameplay but bypasses standard connectivity protocols. Whether this concept evolves into a permanent addition or remains a niche interest remains to be seen.
It’s worth noting that, as of now, Elden Ring Nightreign doesn’t offer a dedicated duo mode. Players must choose between going solo or joining forces with three players, which has proven frustrating for those wanting to play exclusively with one companion. This limitation has sparked criticism in early reviews and discussions, with players expressing their desire for more flexibility. According to one Reddit user, the Nightreign subreddit has taken on a tone reminiscent of a “threesome community,” as participants search for that elusive third member.
During an interview with IGN, Nightreign director Junya Ishizaki admitted the team had initially overlooked the demand for a duo mode. However, he confirmed that the development team is actively considering this feature for future updates. Given the widespread呼声for such a change, it seems inevitable that this mod will spark broader changes.
