Elden Ring Nightreign's director, Junya Ishizaki, recently unveiled substantial map alterations. Procedurally generated volcanoes, swamps, and forests will dramatically reshape the landscape, transforming the map into a colossal dungeon with unique layouts in each playthrough.
The map itself will 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
This innovative approach not only diversifies gameplay but also encourages strategic boss battle preparation. By the third in-game day, players must select their final boss, enabling them to tailor their approach and explore advantageous locations beforehand.

Ishizaki clarified that the roguelike elements aren't a trend-chasing tactic, but rather a means to condense the RPG experience, resulting in a more dynamic and engaging game.
