Alright, here goes nothing. Strap in.

You know how sometimes life just throws a curveball when you least expect it? Well, that’s exactly what’s up with Elden Ring Nightreign. FromSoftware just dropped a surprise update on us — bam! Right when you thought you had the game figured out. Oh, and by “dropped,” I mean after they took everything offline for a bit. Classic, right?
Patch 1.01.5 is live now. Yeah, we’re talking about another small update — if you can call it that — just two weeks after 1.01.4. It’s like, boom, boom, small fixes, here we go again. Maybe they’ve got a checklist somewhere with all these version numbers, just ticking them off one by one.
Oh, side note, in case you were wondering if this patch brought any cool new features — spoiler: it didn’t. Nope, just a couple of bug fixes. And not just any bugs, but ones that mess up your epic battles against those pesky Everdark Sovereign bosses. These guys are like Nightlord bosses on steroids, only if you’ve whipped the original bosses’ butts.
Anyway, the official word is that there was this bug — and not the kind you’d swap out with Raid — that literally left Everdark Sovereign Sentient Pest hanging mid-fight. Imagine gearing up for battle, adrenaline pumping, and then… nothing. Talk about an anti-climax, right? Fixing that bug feels like they just threw us a life jacket in the middle of a storm.
But it gets better, or weirder. Sometimes this crazy Sentient Pest decided to take a little detour out of its battle arena. Like, “Oops! Wrong turn, back to the fight!” Awkward much?
The drama of patch 1.01.5 doesn’t end there. We’re still dancing with the Everdark Sovereigns saga. Meet Gaping Jaw and Darkdrift Knight — sounds like characters straight outta your nightmare, huh? They’ve been sharing the limelight with Sentient Pest. This rotation thing they have going on — one week it’s these two, next week it’s those two. It’s like a never-ending dance-off.
And oh dear gaming gods, FromSoftware isn’t done. More bosses are in the works: we’re talking Tricephalos, Augur… yeah, a whole menagerie of nightmares waiting for their moment to shine. Or maybe haunt, depends on how you see it.
For those unclear moments when you’re like, huh, what’s even happening in this game? — yeah, there’s a guide for that. Chock-full of info about characters, maps, maybe even how to deal with your own virtual existential crises. Isn’t gaming just grand?
So, there it is. A little messy patch that barely makes a splash but somehow keeps us rolling. Who knew bug fixes could be so… eventful?
