To invite friends in Elden Ring Nightreign, use the Matchmaking Settings menu at the Roundtable Hold and select "Invite Members" to add teammates directly from your friends list.
You can also set a password to group up privately.
Here’s a full breakdown on how to do it right.
How to Invite Friends to Your Squad
Go to the Expeditions Table
Start at Roundtable Hold and interact with the Expeditions table. This is where you launch runs and manage your multiplayer setup.
Tab over to the Matchmaking Settings menu. It’s right next to the Target selection screen.
Use the Invite Option
In the Matchmaking Settings screen, select "Invite Members". This opens your platform’s friends list. From there, just choose up to two friends to invite into your team.
Once all three of you are grouped, you can launch an expedition directly without matchmaking.
How to Use Multiplayer Passwords
If you want a more private match setup:
Go to Matchmaking Settings
Set a Multiplayer Password to create a private lobby
Share the password with your friends
This guarantees only people using the password can join your group.
You can also set a Group Password if you want to see more passive multiplayer elements (like phantoms, bloodstains, or messages) from people using the same group tag.
Matchmaking Behavior
Nightreign assumes teams of three. So if only two people team up and don’t use a password, the game will auto-fill the third slot with a random player.
To avoid that, always use a password when you’re not at full party size.
There’s no duo-only mode at launch. If you’re not using a password, you’ll get a third whether you want one or not.
Final Blurb
Inviting friends in Nightreign is easy and doesn’t need any of the old-school summoning tricks. Just open the Matchmaking menu, tap “Invite,” or set a password.
If you want to avoid strangers filling your third slot, make sure you lock it down with a code.
