Elden Ring Nightreign is spicing things up in the Lands Between, taking you to new areas and providing fresh enemies to take on.
If you took a look at the trailer showcased at The Game Awards 2024, you will have also got a sneak peek at some of the bosses you’ll be coming up against in this fresh, standalone experience.
Here, we’ll be detailing all we know about the Elden Ring Nightreign bosses, compiling a list of who you might be coming up against.
Elden Ring Nightreign bosses: Everything we know
Elden Ring Nightreign is a boss rush of sorts, taking place over three days and three nights as you progress toward a final Nightlord boss to victory.
Even though Nightreign is set within the Elden Ring universe, apart from that of previous titles, some familiar ‘Souls’ faces have popped up in the first trailer for the game.
Based on this trailer, information from those who have played an early build, and the February Network Test we’ve compiled a list of bosses that you’ll be facing, so you can do a bit of research and learn some movesets of the classic inclusions:
- Ancient Heroes of Zamor
- Bell Bearing Hunter
- Centipede Demon
- Draconic Tree Sentinel
- Fell Omen
- Nameless King
- The Duke’s dear Freja
- Demi-Human Queen
- Demi-Human Swordmaster
- Ancient Dragon
- Flying Dragon of the Hills
- Wormface
- Draconic Tree Sentinel
- Royal Cavalryman
- Golden Hippopotamus
- Flaming Chariots
- Fire Monk
- Crucible Knight
- Crystalians
- Godskin Noble
- Guardian Golem
- Leonine Misbegotten
- Lordsworn Captain
- Miranda Blossom
- Royal Army Knights
- Royal Carian Knight
- Sanguine Noble
- Elder Lion
The above all appear to be ‘regular’ bosses that you will encounter during your travels, with the more powerful Nightlord being the ‘ultimate’ boss at the end of the challenge.
All Elden Ring Nightreign Nightlords we know so far
We only have one confirmed Nightlord boss so far — Gladius, Beast of the Night — the three headed Cerberus-like enemy, new to this game.
This ‘Nightlord’ could also be a returning boss from the Dark Souls series, potentially someone like Gravelord Nito or Nashandra (hopefully both with new mechanics), since they fit the theme.
However, FromSoft could also just go down the ‘difficult’ angle and have a pool of Nightlord bosses that are the final fights from previous games/DLCs.
If this comes to fruition, we could see fights against Gwyn, Lord Of Cinder, Soul Of Cinder, Slave Knight Gael, and even Manus, Father Of The Abyss, which would be pretty epic.
