Elden Ring 'Nightreign' Servers Down? Emergency Maintenance Schedule, Patch Notes & How to Get Back Online Fast

Elden Ring: Nightreign players will face a brief but complete server shutdown on Monday, June 2 as FromSoftware deploys Patch 1.01.1. According to the official X account, maintenance begins at 01:00 PDT / 04:00 EDT / 10:00 CEST / 17:00 JST and is expected to last three hours on every platform. Why the downtime matters Patch 1.01.1 is the multiplayer spin-off’s first post-launch update. FromSoftware has not posted full patch notes yet, but community managers have hinted at: - Connectivity fixes for co-op drop-ins and invasions - Balance tweaks for early-game armaments and Ashes - Stability improvements to reduce crashes on PC and PS5 Maintenance schedule at a glance • Americas: 1 a.m.–4 a.m. PDT / 4 a.m.–7 a.m. EDT • Europe: 10 a.m.–1 p.m. CEST / 9 a.m.–12 p.m. BST • Asia/Oceania: 5 p.m.–8 p.m. JST / 6 p.m.–9 p.m. AEST What you should do before servers go dark - Finish any active dungeons or boss fights and rest at a Site of Grace to force a cloud save. - Back up your save file locally on PC (…Steam\ERNightreign\) or use PS Plus/Game Pass cloud saves on console. - Spend unbanked Runes; rollback protection is enabled, but it’s safer to level or shop before the patch. - Check @ELDENRING on X or the official Bandai Namco server-status page for a live “maintenance complete” notice. Expected patch-note highlights (based on dev tracker messages) - Nerf to the Wylder Greatbow bleed scaling exploited in PvP. - Fix for a bug that kept co-op phantoms from triggering certain Evergaol entrances. - First wave of anti-cheat signatures targeting PC mod menu “Nightfall+.” - Quality-of-life: option to auto-refill Flask of Cerulean Tears when resting at Minor Erdtrees. How downtime could affect you Single-player mode is also disabled during maintenance because Nightreign relies on always-online validation. Attempting to launch will produce “Network status: under maintenance.” Plan alternate gaming or prep an offline backlog. Looking ahead Sources close to QA say Patch 1.01.2 is tentatively slated for late June and will introduce a rotating “Eternal Gauntlet” boss-rush playlist, hinting at seasonal live-service support. Keep an eye on the official site for formal confirmation after 1.01.1 stabilizes the launch build. Bottom line Set your alarms—or better yet, log off early—because Elden Ring: Nightreign will be unplayable for roughly three hours on June 2. Once Patch 1.01.1 lands, expect smoother summoning, fairer PvP, and the first steps toward ongoing content drops.
