We’re not actually getting the Elden Ring Nightreign patch we’ve been looking forward to today, but we are getting it tomorrow.

Today was supposed to be a big day for Elden Ring Nightreign players everywhere. After months of wait, FromSoftware finally confirmed that Duo Expeditions would be arriving with the game’s next update .

Patch 1.02 was set to arrive today, July 30, but it’s now been pushed back for a very good reason.

Earlier today, just a couple of hours before servers were supposed to go offline for maintenance, to prepare Nightreign for the patch’s arrival, FromSoftware announced on Twitter that it’s delaying the big 1.02 update.

The reason has to do with a tsunami warning issued in Japan following the earthquake near the Kamchatka Peninsula. This is only a single-day delay, however, so the patch should be with us at this same time tomorrow, July 31.

The delay also affects the start of the next cycle of Everdark Sovereign , which is set to bring tougher versions of Nightlord bosses Gaping Jaws , Darkdrift Knight , and Sentient Pest . We’ll now just have to wait a little longer, and hopefully everyone at the studio stays safe.
