How to unlock Shifting Earth events – Elden Ring Nightreign

by

In the game Elden Ring Nightreign, the occurrence known as Shifting Earth is a distinct event that significantly alters the terrain on the Limveld map. At present, there are four such Shifting Earth incidents, each one reconfiguring a section of the map and providing its own potent reward, as well as tough battles to conquer.

How to unlock Shifting Earth events

In Elden Ring: Nightreign, overcoming particular bosses triggers new Shifting Earth occurrences. Once triggered, these events stay active until they’re completed or a few Expeditions are undertaken. Afterward, the appearance of a Shifted Earth event becomes random.

Complete the following Expeditions to unlock access to the corresponding Shifting Earth events:

  • Tricephalos: Crater
  • Augur: Mountaintop
  • Darkdrift Knight: Noklateo, the Shrouded City
  • Fissure in the Fog: Rotted Woods

How to remove a Shifting Earth event

Occasionally, you might prefer to deactivate a Shifting Earth occurrence. Head towards the bed located in the eastern wing, then engage with it to advance time. Make sure to confirm that you want to progress time until the shifting earth event ends, at which point the map of Limveld will revert back to its original state. This area is close to where you can switch your clothing.

It’s not always desirable to experience a Shifting Earth event because it may prevent certain players from joining you if they haven’t yet unlocked the Rotted Woods area. This restriction applies to all Shifting Earth events. To work around this issue, consider inviting them to your party and starting an Expedition together instead. They can participate in the Shifting Earth event during the expedition, but they won’t unlock it in their own game until they successfully complete the corresponding Expedition themselves.

In Elden Ring Nightreign, the ever-changing geographical phenomena pose a significant threat to the map. Yet, if you’re courageous enough to conquer the location and fulfill its mission, you stand to gain an incredibly impactful reward. For further assistance, peruse our Elden Ring Nightreign guide.
