Elden Ring Nightreign: FromSoftware Warns PC Gamers With ‘the Latest Graphics Cards’ May Suffer Framerate Drops

by

Prior to the release of Elden Ring Nightreign, developer FromSoftware has alerted PC gamers that they might encounter frame rate decreases when utilizing the most recent graphics cards.

In a message to fans accompanying Elden Ring’s launch-day updates, FromSoftware recommended troubleshooting potential issues by adjusting graphics settings. They suggested reducing the graphical quality from “High” to either “Medium” or “Low”, and also decreasing screen resolution. Additionally, they advised installing the most recent drivers for your graphics card.

Here’s the statement:

We have confirmed that some PC configurations using the latest graphics cards may experience framerate drops. We are currently investigating the cause. In the meantime, If you experience significant framerate drops, you may be able to resolve it by setting the graphics settings from the default “High” to “Medium” or “Low” and lowering the screen resolution, as well as installing the latest drivers for your graphics card.

In addition, FromSoftware provided guidance on troubleshooting for the PC version, recommending that players experiencing problems check the integrity of their game files.

In iggn.ru‘s recent interview with Elden Ring Nightreign director Junya Ishizaki, the development lead discussed the choice to lean on solos and trios as the core experience options. When asked why there’s no option for a pair of players to drop in together without a matchmade third player, Ishizaki said it was overlooked.

Apologies for any inconvenience, but during the development process, we missed incorporating a third player option which was initially intended for our game, Nightreign. Our aim from the start was to create a thrilling multiplayer co-op experience designed for three players, and that’s the essence of Nightreign at its core.

Ishizaki added, “I personally relate to the desire for solo gameplay experiences, and that’s why we focused on making it enjoyable for single players right from the beginning. However, in our enthusiasm to create this solo experience, we may have unintentionally overlooked the duos aspect. But don’t worry, we are thinking about enhancing the duos mode as part of our post-launch support.

If you’re only pairing up with your preferred teammate, remember to be open to welcoming an additional player to your group. There’s always the possibility that this newcomer could turn out to be quite skilled in the game.
