Elden Ring Nightreign Preorder Codes Unlock Exclusive Gesture
April 30, 2025
Elden Ring Nightreign, the highly anticipated co-op-focused sequel to FromSoftware’s 2022 masterpiece, is generating buzz with preorder codes offering exclusive in-game rewards. As reported by IGN on April 23, 2025, preordering any version of Nightreign grants the ‘It’s Raining’ gesture, a playful emote for co-op play in The Lands Between. Best Buy sweetens the deal with a free $10 gift card for preorders, making it a prime time for fans to secure their copy ahead of the 2025 release.
Unlike the open-world exploration of Elden Ring, Nightreign emphasizes cooperative gameplay, letting players team up to tackle challenging bosses and dungeons. The gesture, usable in multiplayer sessions, adds a layer of personality, letting players taunt or celebrate with friends. To redeem the code, players must preorder through retailers like Best Buy or GameStop and enter the code via the game’s menu at launch. IGN advises checking retailer sites frequently, as some bonuses are limited-time offers.
Community feedback on Discord and X highlights the gesture’s appeal, with players sharing clips of similar emotes from Elden Ring’s multiplayer. However, some fans express mild disappointment, hoping for more substantial preorder rewards like exclusive weapons or armor. FromSoftware has hinted at additional bonuses closer to release, possibly tied to deluxe editions. For now, the gesture remains a fun incentive, especially for co-op enthusiasts eager to dive into Nightreign’s punishing world.
These preorder codes align with a trend in 2025, where developers use small rewards to boost early sales while keeping rewards fair for all players. Unlike exploits, these legitimate bonuses enhance the experience without breaking game balance. Fans are encouraged to follow FromSoftware’s X account or join Discord communities for updates on new codes or events, ensuring they don’t miss out on Nightreign’s launch perks.
