As a seasoned traveler through FromSoftware’s dark and twisted realms, I must say the announcement of Nightreign has sent shivers down my spine. The sight of familiar foes from the Dark Souls series, including the notorious Nameless King, has me both excited and apprehensive.
In an exciting twist, FromSoftware and Bandai Namco are experimenting with turning Elden Ring into a battle royale game called Nightreign. This innovative take promises to showcase formidable enemies and bosses drawn from various Dark Souls series, set in the vast, multiverse-like world of Limveld. Keen observers have already recognized some recurring adversaries in the unveiling trailer, observations that the developers have subsequently validated.
From numerous encounters with him, it’s evident that the silhouette of The Nameless King, a formidable foe from Dark Souls III, appears in the footage. However, to alleviate concerns about asset reuse, game director Junya Ishizaki has confirmed to Famitsu (thanks, IGN) that these appearances will be limited.
Ishizaki stated that these adversaries resemble beings who have wandered into Elden Ring from other dimensions, hinting at a possible shared connection between FromSoftware’s IPs beyond just a character named Patches. According to IGN, this suggests the possibility of appearances by characters or elements from Bloodborne, Demon’s Souls, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice; it’s also interesting to note that the diverse character classes in Nightreign seem to mimic gameplay styles from these games.
