We are now just over one month away from Elden Ring: Nightreign taking the collective gaming world by storm with its blend of open-world Souls-like action and roguelike elements.
To help keep the momentum going, FromSoftware has dropped a new trailer revealing a new character known as the Raider. This newcomer has expectational strength and fortitude and can dish out damage as well as he can take it.
This certified badass wears a dragon skull, wields a giant stone club, and can be seen in the trailer summoning platforms to get the drop on enemies. He also likes to celebrate his victories in style, as we see him putting away a drink or two whilst enjoying his own company.
Elden Ring: Nightreign is planned to launch on PC, PlayStation consoles and Xbox consoles on 30th May. Be sure to keep an eye out, as we are planning to pull together our thoughts on the game when it launches.
You can take a look at the new character reveal trailer below:
