Elden Ring Nightreign's Libra boss reveal has sparked a surprising comparison to Ben 10's Grey Matter among fans. Dive into this unique resemblance and the formidable nature of the goat-like Nightlord.
Elden Ring Nightreign Libra Boss Reveal Gameplay
It’s Hero Time?
As Elden Ring Nightreign approaches its eagerly awaited release, FromSoftware unveiled a glimpse of one of its bosses, Libra, the "Creature of Night," in gameplay footage released by IGN on May 6. This boss, one of the 8 Nightlords, showcases the challenging gameplay typical of FromSoftware titles, with its fast and devastating attacks.
However, it's not just Libra's combat abilities that caught fans' attention. The boss's appearance has drawn comparisons to Grey Matter from the popular cartoon series Ben 10, mainly due to the large, bell-like structures on Libra's horns, which some mistook for eyes.
The resemblance was a topic of discussion on platforms like YouTube and Reddit, especially after Libra's brief appearance in the December 2024 reveal trailer. While the comparison adds a humorous twist, Libra is poised to be a formidable adversary in the game.
Madness!
The gameplay footage highlighted Libra's ability to induce Madness in players, causing health and focus point loss along with stunning effects. This mechanic underscores the importance of team coordination, as Libra unleashes large area-of-effect attacks and unique combat patterns.
Players can interact with the Scale-bearing Merchant before facing Libra, who offers enhancements like increased strength or resistance to ailments, or even the chance to "hold death at bay." Opting to make a deal or not, players soon discover that the Merchant is actually Libra in disguise, who then transforms into its true, menacing form.
As the battle intensifies, Libra's attacks become more ferocious. Starting with spell-based projectiles and area-of-effect sigils, Libra escalates its aggression when damaged, unleashing powerful melee attacks and enhancing its madness-inducing spells.
With less than a month until its release, FromSoftware continues to unveil more about Elden Ring Nightreign, promising a fresh multiplayer experience within the Souls game framework. The recent overview trailer provided insights into the game's lore, gameplay mechanics, and additional features.
Elden Ring Nightreign is slated for release on May 30, 2025, available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Stay tuned for more updates and detailed information about the game in our upcoming articles!
