FromSoftware issues troubleshooting advice for the PC version of Elden Ring Nightreign, releases Day 1 Patch

It seems Elden Ring Nightreign has already run into severe performance related issues ahead of it’s release today, with developer FromSoftware officially warning PC gamers that they can experience sudden dips in framerates when using “the latest graphics cards.” And while Elden Ring Nightreign has received a Day 1 Patch, FromSoftware recommends PC players to lower their graphics settings as well as lowering the screen resolution if they’re still affected by framedrops and other performance problems.

The developer has released this official statement to everyone who’s currently having technical problems in Elden Ring Nightreign:

“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.”

FromSoftware has also issued a troubleshooting advice for players on the PC platform:

– If issues such as being unable to start the game occur on the PC version, they can sometimes be resolved by performing the following steps in Steam:

Go to “Library” > right-click on “ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN” > select “Properties” > select “Installed Files” > and execute “Verify Integrity of Game Files.”

So if you’re currently having any issues in the game, make sure to try this official troubleshooting advice from the devs to check whether the problems get resolved or not.

Elden Ring Nightreign has also received it’s first patch 1.01 aiming to fix some of the performance problems players are currently having, besides improving some general gameplay related stuff along with bug fixes. Check out all the patch notes below:

Improved handling of playable characters
Soundtrack addition and adjustments
Text adjustments
Balance adjustments
Added character scenarios
Bug fixes

And while it’s certainly unfortunate to see Elden Ring Nightreign being hit with severe performance related issues right out of the bat upon it’s launch, hopefully the devs manage to iron out all of them swiftly.
