In Elden Ring, you can get the Sword of Night Katana by progressing Ymir’s and Jolan’s questline in Shadow of the Erdtree. In the end, you will find Jolan in a state of near death, around his usual spot inside the Cathedral of Manus Metyr.

When you talk to Jolan, after a few dialogue options, you will get the option to choose between:

  • Give Iris of Grace
  • Give Iris of Occultation
  • Leave

If you give Jolan the Iris of Occultation, she will hand you the Sword of Night Katana, her weapon. On the contrary, if you choose the Iris of Grace option, you will be rewarded with the Swordhand of Night Jolan Spirit Ash instead. Thus, to get the Sword of Night, you must start a second playthrough of the DLC.

So, make sure to select the “Give Iris of Occultation” option at the end of Ymir and Jolan’s questline to obtain the Sword of Night in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree.
