Overview
- The expansion is live and markedly more difficult, with halved-health castle sections, vision‑blocking weather, and frequent paired boss encounters.
- The new Nightlords—the Balancers and the Dreglord—are tuned as group challenges, with early runs often ending to returning threats like Mohg.
- The Great Hollow debuts as an instanced Shifting Earth map with steep verticality and storm pressure, plus returning bosses including Mohg and Artorius.
- Two new Nightfarers expand team roles: Scholar analyzes and debuffs enemies with powerful support tools, while Undertaker delivers accessible hammer‑and‑Faith offense.
- FromSoftware’s emphasis on coordination collides with an ongoing lack of crossplay across PC, PS5, and Xbox, even as an official post touts over 2 million DLC players in under a week.
