Elden Ring Unveils Nightreign Raider: Axe-Wielding, Ale-Loving Dragon Fighter

Elden Ring Nightreign has just unveiled its sixth playable character, the Raider, an axe-swinging Viking who promises to bring a thrilling edge to FromSoftware's upcoming multiplayer survival game. Announced via a Twitter (X) post on April 15, the character trailer showcases Raider's prowess, depicting him as an aging warrior with a penchant for heavy attacks and a fearless approach to combat.

In the trailer, Raider demonstrates his might by delivering devastating blows to his adversaries, including a solo confrontation with a dragon that he dispatches with a single, powerful strike. Beyond his brute strength, Raider's unique ability to summon a large monolith block adds a strategic element to his gameplay. This monolith serves as an elevated platform, benefiting both himself and his allies by providing a vantage point that is difficult for enemies to reach. This not only aids long-range characters but also allows Raider to launch aerial attacks on his foes.

While the trailer does not delve into the specifics of Raider's attacks and abilities, it certainly stirs excitement among fans eager to experience his combat style firsthand. For those looking to dive into the world of Elden Ring Nightreign, pre-orders are now available, offering players a bonus in-game gesture.
