The \u201cCord End\u201d item in Elden Ring Nightreign <\/strong>had players at a loss<\/a> ever since the game was released last week, but its mystery has finally been solved. As the Cord End\u2019s description of \u201cGain entry somewhere<\/em>\u201d suggests, the item does, in fact, grant you access to a certain in-game area, but now we finally know where.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As discovered by Japanese Elden Ring Nightreign players on X<\/a>, there is a door hidden in the valley to the northeast of the castle in the center of the map. The door displays a message suggesting only those who are qualified can open it, but if you have the Cord End on you, you\u2019ll be able to open it. Players who\u2019ve ventured beyond the door are rewarded with Sacrificial Twigs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Cord End is quite rare and hard to find, but if you\u2019re lucky, you might be able to spot one in a container, on a defeated enemy or on the ground of a church or shrine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elden Ring NIGHTREIGN is out now for PC (Steam), PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.     <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
