In a recent interview, director Junya Ishizaki unveiled exciting details about the upcoming game, Elden Ring Nightreign. He disclosed that the game's map will feature "significant landscape changes in the form of procedurally generated volcanoes, swamps, and forests." This innovative approach aims to transform the map into what feels like a "gigantic dungeon," offering players fresh exploration opportunities with every playthrough.
We wanted the map itself to feel like a gigantic dungeon, allowing players to explore it in new ways each time. At the end of the third in-game day, players will need to choose a boss to face. - Junya Ishizaki
The introduction of these dynamic changes is not merely for variety but also strategically designed to diversify gameplay and encourage players to adopt different strategies for the final boss battle during each playthrough. By the conclusion of the third in-game day, players are required to select their ultimate boss, allowing them to tailor their preparation and explore areas that might offer advantages against the chosen adversary.

Upon choosing a boss, players may consider the best way to prepare for the fight, which could alter their route on the map. We wanted to give players that freedom— for example, deciding, 'I need to acquire poisonous weapons to counter this boss.' - Junya Ishizaki
Ishizaki emphasized that integrating roguelike elements into Elden Ring Nightreign is not about following trends but about enhancing the role-playing experience, making it more dynamic and compressed.
