Elden Ring Nightreign Character Reveals

The Axe-Swinging Raider

As the release date of Elden Ring Nightreign approaches, FromSoftware continues to excite fans with new character reveals. On April 15, via a post on Twitter (X), they introduced Raider, an aging Viking known for his powerful axe swings and his readiness to challenge any adversary, including dragons with a single, devastating blow.

The trailer showcases Raider's ability to execute heavy attacks that can take down even the mightiest of foes. One of his standout abilities is summoning a large monolith block, which serves as a strategic platform. This not only elevates long-range allies out of enemy reach but also provides Raider with a vantage point to launch aerial attacks on his opponents.

While the trailer does not delve into the specifics of his attacks and abilities, it's clear that Raider brings a dynamic playstyle to the game. Fans eager to experience this can pre-order Nightreign now and receive a bonus in-game gesture. For more details on pre-orders and the DLCs available, check out our comprehensive article below!
