Elden Ring Nightreign is already up for preorder with a $10 gift card

Elden Ring Nightreign’s rocky network test might have left some fans disappointed this week, but I sincerely doubt a few breif server issues did much to diminish the growing anticipation for FromSoftware’s next soulslike for Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. Thankfully, if you were still planning on picking up the Elden Ring spin-off when it launches on May 30th, it’s already available for preorder with a $10 gift card at Best Buy for $39.99 or from Fanatical for $35.19 (about $5 off). From what we’ve seen, and our own Ash Parrish has experienced, Neightrein isn’t so much a sequel to Elden Ring as it is a standalone co-op title set in a parallel universe. It’s got all the visual hallmarks of FromSoftware’s 2022 epic — sweeping vistas, haunting ruins, etc. etc. — along with the brutal boss battles and combat on display in both the original game and its excellent DLC, Shadow of the Erdtree. The big difference between Nightreign and previous ER titles is that you’re forced to tackle the new region of Limveld over a three-day span, either solo or in a team of three. Then you throw in a few character classes, a leveling system, and a Fortnite-like storm that shrinks the map over time, making each run absolute chaos. If it seems like an amalgamation of multiplayer games, well, it kind of is.

The smart trash can is about as niche as the model we tested back in 2023; however, if you’re the kind of person who’s been dying to turn your leftovers into commercial-grade chicken feed or compost for your garden, the second-gen model is far quicker than the original, allowing you to process your scraps in about two and a half hours. * You can get Yogasleep’s Dohm Sound Machine for $39.99 ($10 off) at Amazon, Target, and Chewy, which is its second-best price to date. The inexpensive white noise machine is a Verge favorite for helping babies (or yourself) get some rest, as it can mask the sound of traffic, pets, and other unwanted distractions. The device’s built-in fan doesn’t output any air, to be clear, but there are two-speed options for adjustable tone and volume. * Microsoft’s refreshed Xbox Wireless Headset has fallen to an all-time low of $98 ($12 off) at Amazon and Walmart. The previous model was a terrific budget headset with a comfortable design and rotating ear cup dials for adjusting the volume and game/audio chat balance, which the new model builds upon with an upgraded microphone array and an extended 20 hours of battery life. Plus, it supports Dolby Atmos and Bluetooth 5.3, meaning you can now pair it with Xbox consoles, mobile devices, and PC.
