Elden Ring Nightreign's Libra boss reveal gameplay video has sparked an amusing comparison among fans, noting its resemblance to Ben 10's Grey Matter. Dive in to explore this unique connection 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 release, FromSoftware unveiled a glimpse of one of its bosses, stirring curiosity due to its striking similarity to a cartoon character. On May 6, IGN shared new gameplay footage featuring one of the 8 Nightlords, "Libra, Creature of Night."
True to FromSoftware's reputation, Libra promises to be a challenging adversary with devastating attacks and remarkable agility. Beyond its combat prowess, fans have been quick to point out an intriguing resemblance.
YouTube comments highlighted Libra's uncanny resemblance to Grey Matter from the beloved cartoon series Ben 10, primarily due to what seemed to be massive eyes but were actually bells hanging from his horns. This humorous comparison sparked conversations on Reddit following the game’s reveal trailer in December 2024. Despite the light-hearted comparisons, Libra is poised to be a formidable foe when the game launches.
Madness!
The gameplay footage showcased Libra as a madness-inducing boss, capable of inflicting the Madness Status Effect on players, leading to health and focus point loss, and stunning them. The video emphasized the importance of team coordination to counter Libra’s expansive area-of-effect attacks and unique patterns.
Before confronting Libra, players can negotiate with the Scale-bearing Merchant, who offers boosts in strength, resistance to ailments, or protection against death. Players can choose to decline and head directly into battle. The video does not clarify any potential drawbacks of these deals. Upon sealing or refusing a deal, the Scale-bearing Merchant transforms into Libra, shedding its skin to reveal its true form.
As the battle unfolds, Libra escalates its threat level, deploying a wider range of attacks. Initially, it casts spells as projectiles and summons area-of-effect sigils. After taking significant damage, Libra enters a berserk state, unleashing devastating melee attacks and intensifying its madness-based spells and area-of-effect assaults.
With the release date just around the corner, FromSoftware is set to unveil more about Elden Ring Nightreign, highlighting its innovative multiplayer approach to Souls games. Recently, they released an overview trailer, delving into the game's lore, gameplay, and features.
Elden Ring Nightreign is slated for release on May 30, 2025, and will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. Keep an eye on our updates for the latest news on the game!
